I just built a new system (not my first one) using a Gigabyte Aorus X870 Elite. I am unable to get my MSI GeForce RTX 5070Ti Gaming Trio to produce video, the card lights up and all the fans on it are working but no video! I've tried it on 3 of those same Aorus boards with the very same result, the system Boots, i get the dreaded 2 beeps and no video. The on-board video is working fine. I've even mailed the video card back to MSI to have it checked. I tried this video card in my other system with an MSI Pro Z790-P and it works just fine, I'm at my wits end trying to figure out why it won't run with my Aorus. I've double checked every connection.
I've built at least15 systems over the years, but this one has me totally stumped.
Anyone have any ideas?

Here are the other components on this system:
AMD Ryzen 7 9800x3D CPU
G.Skill Trident 64 Gig RGB DDR5 6000 ram

include the age of the PSU apart from it's make and model. BIOS version for your motherboard at this moment of time.

Never Mind, I have it figured out. It's the Be quiet case it had a portruding part that I had to remove, it kept the video card from having a solid contact with the PCIe socket, All's well in the world now! I can't believe I didnt notice it earlier.
