So yesterday I upgraded my graphics card from 660ti to 980ti. After installing the new cards I went to boot up my machine and it began a cycle of starting and shutting down. I figured I screwed something up (obviously) so I turned it off, unplugged everything (except the RAM and CPU) from my motherboard and started over. Afterwards PC booted up just fine but now it wont detect my Ethernet port.

The yellow light comes on but not the green. I know my cord words my router works and I can connect to the internet with the other PCs in the house.

Network Adapters isn't showing up in Device Manager.

I can't install Intel Drivers, I get error "Cannot install drivers. No Intel(R) Adapters are present in this computer"

I can't install Realtek drivers "Realtak network controller could not found, if deep sleep mode is enabled plug the cable."

LAN is enabled in the BIOS. Hell I even reset my BIOS and cleared CMOS and that didn't work.

I'll be honest I'm not entirely sure what I'm doing here. Hopefully what I've tried hasn't screwed up my computer even more. Any ideas of what it could be or how I can go about fixing it? Or am I just going to have to buy a new motherboard?

I have a gigabyte GA-Z87X-OC btw
