I have just built a new computer with all new components (except the GPU, case and HDD) and the CPU and case fans are running, I have a red LED on my motherboard (Gigabyte Aorus Elite B450) and my power button LED is on but connecting to either onboard or dedicated GPU yields nothing.
I have turned off the computer from the switch at the back and tried flipping the front panel pins but this did not work.
I turned off the computer in the same manner again (as the reset button simply does not work and only flashes the case LED) to unseat the GPU and use onboard graphics and again this did not work.
I would not mind testing components but I am wary of turning the computer off from the switch at the back again. I suppose the reset button just seems safer but I have no idea.
I do not have a VGA cable to hand but may be able to get one. I am currently in Japan and whilst the GPU was bought within the UK, all other components were not, should that affect voltage.
Any help would be greatly appreciated in getting the reset button to work and the HDMI signal to be recognised.
Components:
Corsair RM 550x PSU
Gigabyte Aorus Elite B450 Motherboard
AMD Ryzen 7 2700X CPU (not overclocked)
Stock CPU cooler
HyperX Fury DDR4 16 GB (2 x 8 GB) 2666
MSI GTX 960 2G (currently unseated)
Western Digital 1 TB HDD (I cannot remember the model, I apologise)
ASUS VZ239 Monitor
