I am building a new PC. What I ordered was a combo from NewEgg which included the following:
* ASUS SABERTOOTH 990FX R2.0 AM3+ AMD 990FX + SB950 8 x SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX AMD Motherboard with UEFI BIOS
* MSI GTX 980 GAMING 4G GeForce GTX 980 4GB 256-Bit GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 x16 HDCP Ready SLI Support G-SYNC Support Video Card
* Rosewill Photon-850, PHOTON Series 850W Full Modular Power Supply, 80 PLUS Gold Certified, Single +12V Rail, Intel 4th Gen CPU Ready, SLI & Crossfire Ready
* AMD FX-8350 Black Edition Vishera 8-Core 4.0GHz (4.2GHz Turbo) Socket AM3+ 125W FD8350FRHKBOX Desktop Processor
* HyperX Savage 8GB 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 2133 (PC3 17000) Desktop Memory Model HX321C11SR/8
* Mushkin Enhanced ECO2 MKNSSDEC240GB 2.5" 240GB SATA III MLC
* Western Digital Blue WD10EZEX 1TB 7200 RPM 64MB Cache SATA 6.0Gb/s 3.5" Internal Hard Drive Bare Drive
The monitor was purchased separately:
ASUS VG248QE Black 24" 144Hz 1ms (GTG) HDMI Widescreen LED Backlight LCD 3D Monitor Height&pivot adjustable 350 cd/m2 80,000,000:1 Built-in Speakers
After I installed everything and had it all plugged in. I turned it on. The fans in the case were spinning, lights on the motherboard were on. However, I had a "DVI No Signal" on my monitor. I unplugged the cable and tried a HDMI cable and had "HDMI No Signal" on my monitor.
I unplugged everything. I double checked all the cables and the video card and made sure everything was snug. Then retried it and still got the same message(s) on my monitor.
It was suggested to plug it straight in to the video port on the motherboard, which I looked for but the motherboard I had bought did not have one.
Someone explained to me that it should work, but something about the graphics card I had bought might work better with an Intel Motherboard and CPU.
So, I ordered the following new motherboard and CPU:
* ASUS Z97-A LGA 1150 Intel Z97 HDMI 4 x SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX Intel Motherboard
* Intel Core i5-4690K Devil's Canyon Quad-Core 3.5GHz LGA 1150 BX80646I54690K Desktop Processor Intel HD Graphics 4600
I installed everything again and plugged my monitor to the video card and still get the "DVI No Signal" or "HDMI No Signal" depending which cord I was trying.
The new motherboard has a port for your monitor so I plugged it into it and still got "DVI No Signal". I then read that you should take your video card out, which I then did. And still got the same message. I even put my monitor on Display Port and got "Display Port No Signal"
Is there something I am missing or haven't tried? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
