before you say it is died
check the card if it is inserted correctly in its slot
and the cables
and 6pin power cable

i suspect is is the power supply 6pin wire

Have you tried the connection on the other side of the video card? Most have 2, maybe a bad cable......You did not mention anything you tried so I offer the most obvious ones.

Maybe your monitor crapped out on you. Ive went through a few myself.

No i think there's something wrong with the Gpu because when i put the Vga on the ononboard graphics card the screen shows up.And i have both slots.
