New mobo, new VGA, no display.

[Strongwolf2]

I just installed anew MB (MSI 990 FXA Gaming), a MSI GeForce GTX 1050 VGA and 16GB of G. Skill F3 2133 RAM and I can't get a display. Try changing the RAM, the PSU, GPU and CPU. Do a couple of clear CMOS and put the battery upside down. I don't know what else to do. Any ideas?.

Well, what I would do is take out the GPU, and use the on-board graphics to make sure everything is set up correctly. Are the fans spinning?

Won't work if it's an FX CPU (no onboard graphics).

Agreed with Herc08, secondly did you check BIOS / UEFI to set to External (PCIe) display instead of IGP?
Please don't "Windows" test this, work towards BIOS / UEFI, that it boots to it, you can see everything properly in it, and it says the proper 'settings' (installed 8GB and it shows 16GB for example) all display inside BIOS / UEFI. Once you get to this point THEN worry about any Windows part 'after'.

It has no inboard video. I test the VGA in another rig that I have and it works fine. So is not the VC. I'm going to take the mobo out of the case and test it. THK.
