I have built my very first gaming computer. My motherboard is asus z170-a, and gpu is zotac gtx 1070 amp extreme. This is the second gpu I have had, as I thought the first one was faulty. This new one is showing the exact same signs as the previous one. My PC shows no signal when the gpu is installed, no signal from either built in graphics or the gpu. As soon as I take the gpu out, and use the integrated graphics it boots just fine. The PC seems to boot past POST with the card installed but still shows no signal. I'm lost and could really do with some help. I have tried what I believe to be everything and I'm almost at the point of pulling my hair out!

Hi pal , I'm in the sane boat at the moment with my gpu and have managed to boot off my mb into bios set initial display to Integrated graphics and save and exit , let boot norm then shutdown , install your gpu next but keep monitor connected to mb then when you boot it will show signal and your computer will then show your card installed in device manager . That's as far as I have got the rest I will figure when I get home from work lol , hope it helps and if you figure the rest post back please

Thanks for responding. I have tried the above, the disc that came with the gpu won't let me install the drivers, nor will it online as it doesn't detect a gpu because I have to take it out in order for the computer to show signal
