So, this is my original setup that I have been using for the past couple years. Took it apart two days ago to clean it out fully but now I put it back together and my monitor says “No signal detected” from the GPU.
I have the following setup:

CPU: FX-6300
GPU: GTX 970
MOBO: ASUS M5A97
PSU: EVGA 500B

Fans on cooler, gpu, case fans and PSU are all spinning. No beeps from mobo etc

What am I missing? I have 2x6 PIN into the GPU, the GPU into the MOBO and then the DVI from GPU to TV.

It has worked fine for years..

Last thing is to reseat RAM sticks. They seem to be fully inserted, but is quite hard to tell just by a picture. Also, are you sure they were not in blue slot before? Some mobo are quite picky about where you put your ram. When moving sticks around, make sure to reset CMOS after you move them before you start up.

If that won't help, that would mean something died in the process of cleaning.

All looks connected, except I can't see if CPU cooler is connected to correct header (it has to be in CPU_FAN header and not the other 4-pin fan header). Btw is front fan running? If not, one of its molex connectors has to be connected to molex plug coming PSU.
Check if the heatsink is not overtightened.

Checked the heatsink on the EVO, it was pretty tight but i loosened it slightly. Still its pretty solid in place though, i feel as though if i loosen it anymore the screws that hold it will pop out of place and become undun.
Also, noticed the 4 PIN CPU_FAN was on CPU_FAN3, changed it to CPU_FAN.
But didn't change anything, still No Signal on my monitor.
Ugh I wish I never took it apart..
Also, got the front fan working by doing what you suggested.
But again, everything is working apart from the signal. :/


Any more suggestions on what it might be? Thanks for the help!
