What wattage is that EVGA PSU?

You have had the system for a month - is the system new, used, reconditioned, self-built?

Motherboard User Guide:

https://dlcdnets.asus.com/pub/ASUS/...0-PLUS/E16576_TUF_GAMING_B550-PLUS_UM_WEB.pdf

Do verify that I have match Guide to motherboard.

Read the User Guide and confirm that all installations and connections are made in accordance with the Guide's instructions.

Since the computer has been working my thought is that something has simply come loose.

Treat as a new build and work through the connections again. Ensure that all are fully and firmly in place.

LED explanations are found on physically numbered Pags 1-5 and 1-7.

Try another known working video cable.

Try another known working monitor.

Try cable and monitor on another known working computer.

Determine if the problem follows monitor or cable or remains with your pc.

PSU wattage? PSU age and condition? Heavy gaming or video use. Maybe even bit-mining?

Are you able to test display without the RTX 260? I.e., integrated GPU if available via CPU.

What about the other video ports on the GPU?

Which port DP, HDMI, or DVI have you been using?

Also ; you mentioned "white light is vga". Where is that light located.

The white light is in the motherboard vga light and yes I tried all ports but nothing it’s working and I have no intergrated graphics

Okay - found it. The Q leds over by the RAM slots and the power connectors.

Physically numbered Page 1-1, upper right of the motherboard. Green circled "20".

Based on what you have done to date, the troubleshooting seems to narrow down to the GPU.

Do you have another GPU to try or another known working computer in which to test your GPU?

Objective being to determine if the display problem stays with your computer or follows the GPU.
