Hi,
I need some help. I am a noob when it comes to building a computer, so for the last 6 months, I have been watching a lot of videos on how to build a computer, and I finally purchased all the components and just I finished building my PC. But, unfortunately even with all the research I did about how to this, which I thought I knew what I was getting myself into, I am having an issue.
The issue is that I plugged everything in, and I get no signal on my monitor, I tried it on my TV (HDMI), nothing. Inside the case everything seems to be running, the fans are on, I see a few LEDs on , the mouse is on, the Leds on the RAM are on ... The computer seems to be running.
Here are my specs:
So my thought process was to get this motherboard because it has "Integrated AMD Radeon Vega Series Graphics in Ryzen Series APU* "
and I thought I will wait a bit before buying a decent Graphic card.
Now it seems that the "Actual support may vary by CPU" according to the motherboard description.
So, I looked at my CPU specs and It turns out : "Discrete GPU Required - No Integrated Graphics"
I thought this might be the issue.
So I went ahead, and just ordered a graphic card : GIGABYTE GeForce GTX 1660 Ti OC 6G Graphics Card, 2 x WINDFORCE Fans, 6GB 192-Bit GDDR6, GV-N166TOC-6GD Video Card
which I haven't received yet.
But, after second thought, shouldn't I be able to have access at least to the BIOS even if I didn't have any graphic card.
I am now worried, that once I received my graphic card, this might not solved my issue of having no display.
Any thoughts?
Thanks in advance.
