PCIEx16 not detecting my GPU

[CaptRikku]

I recently got a new GPU and today I installed it and its not giving and output I checked in device manager Speccy and It looks like its not being detected I have done multiple things to fix such as reset CMOS and change the primary output to pcie but its defaulting to auto its been stressful and I would really like to find a fix my motherboard is an ASUS P8 H61-M CSM R2.0 its an lga1155
my gpu is a gtx 680 SIG 2 im using a tr2 thermaltake 600 powersupply i have also looked at other threads which none seem to find a solution

TL;DR PCIe 16 slot not detecting GPU need a fix

Thanks in advance

Make sure your monitor is plugged into the GPU, not the motherboard.

Check the GPU has both PCIe power connectors plugged in.

the psus pcie power connecters are installed i tried plugging the dvi cable into the gpu but just a black screen so im using igpu atm just to see

Turn off your computer and make sure your GPU is seated in the top PCI-E slot enough to tighten the screw on your case. Then, have the PCI-E cables connected to your GPU (should be an 8-pin + 6-pin). Connect your DVI cable from the GPU to your monitor and boot it up.

The pcie cables are connected still the black screen

Try removing and re-inserting the GPU.

You are doing this while the power is off, right? GPUs are not hot-swappable.

Lol of course im turning it off ive removed and reinstalled the gpu multiple times btw nothing

Hmm, so did you replace a previous GPU that worked fine in your system? Also did you buy the 680 used, because if it's simply not booting period then there might be a chance it's dead. Your PSU should be enough to run it, or at the very least boot.

the only thing i could try is boot with 1 stick of ram i meet the requirements for everything else

Did you try #17 and #21?

 

[CaptRikku]

Did you try #17 and #21?

i have a speaker yes my bios are supported and yes ive reset the cmos using battery and jumpers

 

[Someone Somewhere]

#21 is to reset the CMOS.

With the speaker, do you get any beep codes?

#21 is to reset the CMOS.

just the standard single beep

Did you disable the on board graphics in your bios?

Did you disable the on board graphics in your bios?

i tried to but becuase my pcie slot wont detect my gpu it defaults to igpu or auto

 

[Someone Somewhere]

Did you reset the CMOS? If not, do it.

Does your board have another PCIe slot? Try that.

Do you have another PC you can try the card in?

 

[Tbonius]

Bare with me, but can you describe your exact process when you try to do this?

So I installed the card Ive made sure its seated properly pcie power connecters are connected i know i have enough power etc
when i tried to use the card you know i plugged in the dvi cable from monitor to gpu and when i tried to use it i just get a black screen i switch back to onboard and i take a look at device manager to see if its registering all i see is intel hd graphics when i open speccy and go to the motherboard section it says the only pci slot being used is the one with my wifi card which i thought was odd i googled multiple things and i couldnt find anything so here i am

what ive done so far is reset cmos ive flashed to bios tried setting gpu to onboard nothing idk what the problem is and my mobo is brand new i bought in september last year and its never had a card in it before so idk

no other pcie slots ive reset the cmos a lot doesnt seem to work unless im doing it wrong or something the card worked in my buds pc before he gave it to me

So, with the video card installed, the bios does not give you the option to select it.

I'm not familiar with your motherboard but you might want to check this out. http://forums.anandtech.com/showthread.php?t=2212243
