Hello, so I bought a new GPU (ASUS Radeon R7 360 OC 2GB GDDR5). Excited to see how will it perform, i put the GPU in my PC, screwed it in, closed the case and turned it on. As the title says, monitor showed me a "HDMI no display" message. I got confused and changed the new GPU with my old one. Everything worked fine, so i thought maybe it was the drivers. So i uninstalled the recent drivers, turned off the PC and did the same process. Still doesn't work. I have no idea what to do, only thing that comes to my mind is updating the BIOS, but I'm not 100% sure about that.

Yes, make sure the GPU is seated correctly, and also make sure all power cables are correctly in place and not coming loose. They should all have a latch that clicks over a latch on each cable slot. Make sure that PCI-e 4-pin and very similar looking 4-pin CPU connector are not in the wrong slots. CPU connector should have CPU or something like...

The message displays right when the PC boots. I figured out that the GPU works (fans are working). I'll try to work on it tonight and see if I can do something, thanks for the reply.

The GPU may be defective even if the fans are spinning. Return or exchange it with the warranty and get a new one to rule out that factor. If you can do this soon, it would be helpful to diagnose your problem.

Indeed. I had hoped if the BIOS screen showed, then it may have indicated a driver issue. At which point booting into safe mode may have confirmed that.

Insofar as it doesn't get to the BIOS screen, then, as Damorihno suggests, it may be a faulty GPU. (Always annoying when that happens.) The only other thing is to check whether the GPU is installed correctly (but that seems unlikely).

Oh, is the problem there? I just disconnected the old GPU and connected the new one, i did nothing with the cables. Although there is i think a 6 pin port that you can put a cable in. I'm not an expert.

Thanks, I'll check it tomorrow, but I'm not sure if there is a 6 pin connector in my psu.

If that's so, there may be a 4+2-pin. They just clip together to make the 6-pin.
