Hi I decide to build a pic to show it off to my gaming friends cause I play in a potato laptop but I'm struggling with my Pc build but don't wanna ask my guy friends cause I wanna seem cool when I show them my baby. I plugged everything in in my motherboard but once I use the hdmi from my computer to my monitor is show that there is "no signal from hdmi" here are my spec:

•Corsair Carbide series spec-02 red shift
•Z170A gaming m5 motherboard
•Dell 24 Monitor

Or maybe I plugged in something wrong. Thank you all so much!

If you ready this far I love you pleas send help my way. xoxo

Also I'm sorry if I mispelled somethings I'm the worst at spell checking

Also I have a lot of srews left, is that a problem?
 
[strike]It's good except for the PSU.

B1/G1/BQ/GQ are the not so good series by EVGA
B2 is alright
GS / G2 / P2 is very good
G3 is excellent

Other PSUs to consider are Corsair RMx/RMi/Hx, anything made by Super Flower, XFX XTR, Cooler Master V, Seasonic X
If you're on a tighter budget: XFX TS/Core/Pro, Seasonic G or S12II/M12II, Cooler Master Vs (or Vanguard semi-modular), Corsair CXM 450/550/650 (other CXM are crap)

A 550W PSU will easily handle your build even when heavily overclocked without even stressing unit & fan.


Also you need to get a 6700k instead of the 6700.
Otherwise the build makes little sense, as everything is made to OC a bit (2400MHz Ram, Z170 board, CPU cooler) and you'd be better set with the stock cooler and a H170 board.

I recommend getting a 240-275 GB SSD. 120 is a bit tiny (got one of these myself)[/strike]

Sorry got the post completely wrong.

Do you have the HDMI plugged into the board or the GPU?
Because if you plugged it in the boards HDMI port you won't get a picture.
Otherwise it could be if you're plugged into the card that the board doesn't recognise the GPU automatically. In this case plug the HDMI cable into the board's port, access BIOS and select the GPU as primary display.
