"No Signal" on Monitor, home-built PC

[jtien143]

Hello everyone,

I have read various threads on this forum about my problem but I can't seem to figure out the issue. This computer is just for my step dad to use, he mostly just browses the web so I figured that a motherboard with integrated graphics should be fine. The PSU is really high wattage for this particular build, but I had that one as an extra so I just used it instead of buying a new one. I've tried reseating the ram, made sure that all connections are there and accurate, tried resetting CMOS, tried using all different connections (dvi, vga, hdmi), and I still haven't gotten any positive results. I know for sure that it is not the monitor's issue and that my psu and motherboard are working fine. I'm not sure if the integrated graphics is messed up on the board, but it's a brand new board so I'm really hoping that's not the case... I also have not tried using different ram, I have only swapped them around/tried using 1 stick in different slots. Are there any other things I should test so I can put them on the list?


Here is the current build:

CPU - AMD FX-4300 3.8GHz Quad-Core Processor

CPU Cooler - Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO 82.9 CFM Sleeve Bearing CPU Cooler

Motherboard - Gigabyte GA-78LMT-USB3 Micro ATX AM3+ Motherboard

Memory - Team Elite Plus 8GB (2 x 4GB) DDR3-1600 Memory

Storage - Sandisk Ultra II 120GB 2.5" Solid State Drive
Western Digital Caviar Blue 1TB 3.5" 7200RPM Internal Hard Drive

Case - VIVO CASE-V01 ATX Mid Tower Case

Power Supply - Corsair CX 600W 80+ Bronze Certified Semi-Modular ATX Power Supply

Monitor - AOC e2752Vh 60Hz 27.0" Monitor


I appreciate any suggestions!

I've pretty much exhausted all of these. I attempted to take my brother's graphics card to test out on this board just in case the onboard graphics weren't working, but of course my case, which has been giving me trouble this entire time, is too small to fit it....

this sounds silly, but did you plug the video cable into the gpu when it was plugged into the pc?
anyway, maybe you should try booting using different components. i suggest you start with the psu, then motherboard, and then the gpu.

I didn't buy a gpu because I figured that the motherboard with onboard graphics would be sufficient for my step dad. I'm planning to return the board though because I think it's defective. I tried booting without ram to see if I'd get any POST beeps but there weren't any no matter what I tried.

Then try using a different stick of ram first
