So to sum it up, I had a 1660 that black screens when I try to play games, so I got a new PSU, new storage, and new GPU but not it just wont post.
I have a
550w 80 bronze PSU
intel i3 10105f
asus b560
2x8gb ddr4
as for the timeline:
2 weeks ago my 1660 has started black screening when playing games, losing all display output.
I upgrade my PSU from a 450 to a 550 No change.
I add a new ssd and reinstall windows No change.
finally I just get a new GPU, at first it will not post, and has 1 long + 3 short beeps but after messing with EVERYTHING it boots but it has some artifacting, and will stutter / flash colours. I update drivers and nothing fixes the stuttering, and colour flashes but the artifacting goes away. Eventually I need to reboot my pc, so I turn it off however when it reboots its back to the 4 beeps. I did notice DP1 has no display, but DP2 has a black screen.
I then tried to put the old GPU in and it was a 80/20 on it going back to not posting + the beeps or booting up fine
As for the fixes Ive tried
-Reseating GPU
-Swapping PSU
-Reseating Ram + swapping configuration to single stick in A1
-Resetting Bios
-Cleaning PCIE slot
Im about ready to throw it out of my window and get a GBA, ive dumped enough money into this already.
If I need to get into the pc I can use my old GPU to configure bios / other fixes.
