Hi there,
So I got a new gpu today, a RX 580 8gb, and my old one is a GTX 760.
I installed it without trouble, but when I put the PC on the screen is just black.
Though I can hear windows starting up on the speakers. My problem is that my old card used a vga cable converter that doesn't fit on the new input. So I tried putting using an hdmi cable straight from the monitor's into the card but it's still just a black screen.
I went out and even bought a converter "dvi-d to hmdi" to fit on the bigger input, but to no avail - it looks this https://goo.gl/images/jHwiBE
I am a noob and have no idea what to do now with my screen that doesn't work
For example, see this photo:

Those big 2 inputs on top of each other: my new card only has the top one, and my old card only used the bottom one.
Old card used a converter from vga to that bottom one.
I tried uninstalling all gpu drivers with DDU, and reinstalled the card, but still didn't work. PC starts up fine, can hear windows startup sound, but no screen.
