Hello everyone!
Recently I've brought back from a trip offshore some PC parts to finally upgrade my build. I brought back a new motherboard and CPU along with some memories and a cooler. Besides that, I decided to grab a monitor screen which would be otherwise impossible to get.
So, here's the current build:
Motherboard: Gigabyte z170x - UD3 Ultra
CPU: Intel i7 6700k
Graphics: MSI Nvidia GeForce 970 4GD5T OC 4gb
Screen: Samsung C27F591 27'' Curved screen.
The GPU isn't new, but I bought it back in May.
The problem:
The screen is not working connecting the HDMI cable to the GPU. Neither it does work connecting the HDMI cable to the motherboard. It does, however, work using a VGA cable to a VGA/DVI adapter connected to the GPU. Also, it did work with the HDMI cable connected to the motherboard BUT having the graphics card unplugged.
The screen displays a black screen but does not cycle between source modes, I guess it sort of detects the HDMI connection but it can't quite get through.
I also have a TV which I rarely use, connected to the GPU through another HDMI cable, so the port appears to be working fine and dandy.
After installing the motherboard I did a clean install of the OS and video drivers but it did not work.
I appreciate any help I get, and if you require further information (I obviously skipped some stuff) I'll be happy to provide.
Thank you all kindly!
