Motherboard: ASUS Z97-AR
PSU: Corsair CX750M
CPU: Intel I-5 4690k w/ Hyper 212 EVO Cooler
GPU: ASUS ROG STRIX GeForce® GTX 1080 TI 11GB OC Edition
Monitors:
Middle: ASUS ROG Swift PG279Q DP Connection
Left and Right: ASUS VG278HV HDMI Connection
I have had all of these parts for about 2 years. I just bought the 1080ti yesterday and the ROG monitor earlier this week and did some major cable management behind the desk. After installation of the gpu, I powered up and everything worked fine for a couple hours. Installed the drivers, messed with my desktop backgrounds, and tested a couple games. All great. Then when I went to shut down, I accidentally clicked sleep. I waited for it to sleep then clicked the mouse to power it on. The computer powered up, the graphics card RGB worked like normal, albeit the fans sounded louder than usual, but the monitors did not power up. My keyboard and mouse RGB lit up as well. So I did a forced shutdown and started back up. This time the computer powered up the same way except my mouse and keyboard did not light up. When I clicked some mouse buttons, there was a very faint rgb light as I was clicking almost as if it was struggling to get power to the mouse.
I am pretty green when it comes to technical issues. I go to google but if it starts to get complicated then my head starts to spin a little. Not to mention, I am now restricted to my phone to troubleshoot.
Does this sound like a motherboard issue, GPU, power supply? I am at a loss since everything was working fine. Unfortunately, I have not had a chance to do much troubleshooting yet as this happened extremely late and I am at work now, but I am off the next couple days and am hoping to have a few different directions to try out to fix. Again, I am pretty much a noob past being able to name all the parts and install them so any help is greatly appreciated. I can take the GPU back to where I bought for an easy exchange if that is the issue. I also plan on doing a full parts upgrade later this month, but I would like to be able to use my computer in the meantime.
I appreciate your help!
