Hey guys,

I am trying to build my first gaming PC and when I try connecting the PC to a monitor (via DVI) the monitor does not display anything (No signal). I tried using another monitor and still no luck. When I power on the PC all the fans spin except the GPU's fan.

Thanks!

have you plugged in all the pcie plugs on the video card if it has them?


have you plugged in the monitor to the gpu and not the motherboard?

Yes, I am using a Molex to PCIe Adapter and I also plugged in to the GPU. This is my build if that helps:
