I just got my gtx 1070 in the
Code:
mail. Woo hoo lol. I was using integrated graphics for a while, and when I installed the card onto my gigabyte z170x gaming 5 board, the display showed no signal. I went into the bios and chose the pci e slot for my display, and still nothing. Now I have a blank screen. I have no clue what to do and am proceeding with caution. Thanks to anybody who has the time.

Solution
looking at the manual there is a setting to enable/disable the onboard video and a separate place to select the pcie slot for the gpu. have both settings been changed? igp disabled and pcie slot set to the x16 one?

is the mobo giving any error codes?
