Hey! I've run through this http://www.tomshardware.com/faq/id-1893016/post-system-boot-video-output-troubleshooting-checklist.html but, am still not getting any video signal.

There's no video signal on the monitor, even though the GPU has been getting power (Fans spinning). Have tried integrated graphics via HDMI to monitor on the motherboard, to no avail.


The PC is booting up, with the LED lights coming and the case fans spinning. No drivers have been installed, as the monitor isn
t able to get a signal at all.

ASUS Z97-AR
Intel i5 4690K
Hyper 212 Cpu Cooler
Samsung SSD 850 EVO
HyperX 8GB RAM
Windows 7 Disc
Have tried...
-CMOS Reboot
-Made sure everything was set
-Holding F8 Upon Boot (Not a USB keboard, one plugged in directly to motherboard)
-1 Ram Boot
-Different Ram Slots
-Gone through manual to verify correct installation
-Verified CPU Placement and no bent pins
-Verified STandoff Installation

Should I return the motherboard?

Any help would be amazing, as I'm stumped. Thank you


 
I had this, try what i did which worked.

1) Unplug your PC from the mains or power source.
2) Drain all the power from your PC, by holding down the power on switch on your PC.
3) Power back in, then try again.

If this doesn't work, try the monitor and cable with something else.

With an issue like this, you need to as you have been doing eliminate all the possible things that could be causing it.
