Hello, it’s my first time building a computer and I recently bought a GTX 1080 Armor OC and an i5-4570 and when I go to turn it on with the graphics card installed I get a "no input detected" message on my monitor.
I’ve tried connecting the monitor to both the motherboard HDMI port and the graphics card HDMI port but both bring the same message.
The motherboard HDMI works when I take out the graphics card.
I was wondering if this might be a bottleneck issue and I might have to upgrade the cpu, or something else?
