[SOLVED] Grapchic Card fan spinning but no display.

[Deserted Ranger]

Specifications :-
CPU - AMD FX 6300
MOBO- Gigabyte GA 78LMT USB3
Graphic Card - NVIDIA Geforce GTX 1050TI
Power Supply - Antec VP500

As mentioned above, I have used this pc for about 1 year now. But, currently the graphic card is giving me headech. It stopped providing display for a while now. The fan is spinning smootly though. When I tried to run the setup on onboard graphics, it is working fine with all the same old components.
Please help me out here if anyone can.

It could be the power supply, it could be the card. Hard to say, without swapping parts.

Welcome to the forums my friend!

You say it has been working and then all of a sudden the display simply stopped? I agree with alexoiu it would be difficult to test without swapping parts. All I would say is the GPU could well be defective, and the PSU is poor quality, so could equally be the problem being as the onboard graphics work normally.

Will you please explain how the power supply can create the problem ? I used the same power supply to run it with the onboard graphics with the same hdmi cable and it runs perfectly.

So, please guide me on what should I do next to find out which part is faulty.

If PCIe power cable needed, the power supply might not provide the needed power to the card. But these are just assumptions. Try borrowing a card, if possible, and testing.

I would also cover each and every step in this guide just to ensure nothing is obviously out of place even if you haven't touched internals:

Since, the 1050ti mini edition does not require external power, I dont know if the power supply is faulty or not.

Doesn't matter, the PSU is still what is powering the GPU, just through the PCIe slot alone.
It does require external power, just that power is being distributed through the PCIe slot it is in.

Probably not. I would start by looking for a similar card at one of my dear friends, eager to help me when in need.
A local pc shop might also help.

Let me check it with my friends and will get back to the point again. Thanks for now.
