Hi, I have recently tried to build my first computer, I ordered all the parts and when I set it up the fans all turned on but i had no signal (from my tv or monitor). This led me to think that a piece of hardware might have been broke. So piece by piece I replaced each part. I have now replaced the CPU, motherboard and PSU. And I am still getting the same outcome (no signal to monitor)
The hard drive I am using has no OS (because it is new) and it is leading me to think that this is why I am getting no signal (because I don't have drivers installed for my graphics card).
My spec is:
CPU - AMD FX-6300
Motherboard - MSI 970A-G43 ATX am3+
RAM - g.Skill Ripjaws X series (2 x 4gb)
HDD - Western digital Caviar blue 1TB
Graphics card - MSI Radeon R9 280 3gb TWIN FROZR
PSU - Corsair 500w ATX12V modular
CASE - NZXT Source 210 Elite
cd drive - Samsung 24x SATA dvd writer
Any help at all will be great, like i said this is my first time building a computer and i really hope its not something silly ive done.
Things ive tried:
Re-seating the RAM and booting with 1 at a time
Re-seating the CMOS
Other things i have tried
