Hello guys just built a computer at the beginning of the month was working totally fine until this morning. When I turned it on, it said no HDMI signal detected. I've tried changing HDMI cables made sure my graphics card was in place. even hooked up my PlayStation to my monitor to make it wasn't that. No idea what to do now?

If i may chime in with an observation and a question :)



There is no onboard video available from the MB as the Ryzen 3600 CPU does not have it integrated into the CPU from where the MB would be getting it from.

Q: What is the brand and model name or number of the power supply.
Corsair cx650 650 watt 80 plus bronze
 
You could have dome with a Gold efficiency rated PSU with having such a power hungry GPU but the Corsair should still be able to power it.

Try swapping the 6 and 8 pin PCI-E connections around and likewise try moving the GPU to the other PCI-E slot on the MB.

Can I ask that you do not quote every reply, it really does not help any and just makes for unnecessary reading, thanks.
 
You are welcome, keep us posted and any questions along the way let us know and one of us will get back to you.

So I swapped the 6 and 8 pin pcie cables and it didn't change anything, also couldn't fit my gpu into the second pcie slot. Anything else I can do?
 
Can I ask why the GPU wouldn't fit in the second slot.

Options include the following;

Reseat the RAM.
Trying another GPU.
Try connecting the GPU using the display port.
Remove the CMOS battery and leave it out for a while, just in case there is a bad MB setting,
See if your can borrow an appropriate PSU to make sure that the GPU is getting enough juice.
Get the GPU tested by a local tech or tech store.

To help with troubleshooting I suggest that you get yourself a BIOS speaker for the MB, see attachment;

Changed gpu's still didn't work. Just dropped it off at a tech store so they can hopefully fix it. Thank you for all your suggestions
 
Hopefully they will fix it, will close this thread now but if you need further help with this in the future please contact a staff member who can reopen this thread for you.

Good luck with it.
