I've been using this PC for about four years now and suddenly my GPU HDMI and DVI ports stopped working and my PC won't detect my GPU at all. I can still boot the PC with no other issues, just by using the HDMI port on the motherboard. The GPU lights still come on, but other then that I get nothing.

My GPU is a GTX 970, and everything is connected properly, I haven't opened it up in weeks.

Anyone have any ideas?

Hi
If you open the case are the fan(s) spinning on the GPU. The bad news is its more likely the card has died or the fans are not spinning and its getting to hot. I assume that you have connected the extra 2 X6 pins for power?

The fans on my GPU don't spin until it reaches a certain temperature, and my PC doesn't detect my GPU so I can't use a program to test them out. I have double checked and everything from the power supply is plugged in, I even tried a second set the cables from the PSU to the GPU and still nothing.
