Hey guys, I haven't built my own pc for about 2-3 years now but I have built about 4 so I'm not incredibly naive as to how to put together a pc, though I'm definitely rusty. I have also gone through the entire thread of what to do when a system wont boot/post and havent come to a solution.
Upon installing everything when I plug a vga or hdmi cable into my mobo from my monitor there is no signal. And that is really all I have.
I bought everything new in this system and went through all the procedures of ensuring there was no static to worry about (bracelet, touching metal, working on wood, etc.). So I'm doubtful anything is broken unless it was DOA of course. Anyways, I'm pretty sure I've connected everything and all the case fans, cpu fan and gpu fan power up. All the led's work as well. Now, I'm not sure if I'm blind but I looked through the manual and at the board its self and could see no sign of a light identifying whether the board is getting power (my old board had a little green led that would light up when the mobo recieved power). I don't have a speaker either, so basically I have no idea what the status of my board is or how I would even go about telling what its status is (without buying a speaker, etc.).
I removed the cpu to check for damaged pins, looked perfectly fine so I doubtful the cpu is an issue.
Also tried 1 stick of ram in different slots
The only identifiable issue I have had is that on my psu the single 8 pin connector is broken (arrived that way) but I had two four pin connectors so I used those to power the cpu. (I would return the psu and still might, but because of the Canada Post strike I will have to wait apprx. 25-35 days for it to even be returned to the seller let alone shipped back. That would really piss me off.
If possible ill add pictures of my connections/system but I'm a little dumb founded. Anyways, appreciate any help, thanks guys!
