Need Help!

Plug the DVI from your monitor to the dvi on your Graphics card.Nothing else and reboot.
Does the orange light at the bottom of your monitor change to blue?

Go into Device Manager and view.
Any yellow or red warnings showing.

Click Start and type "device manager" in the search box.
Box will drop down > Left click on "device manager"

 

Okay, sorry it seems I misread the thread so far. First follow DTSM's instructions to check for any reported errors in your Device Manager.

It seems the possibilities are either the GPU or your MOBO that could be causing the issue.

Do you have a secondary system you can test your new graphics card in as it could be DOA.

Some may say that the problem lies in the fact that the card is PCI-E 3.0 compatible and your motherboard only has PCI-E 2.0/2.1 depending on bios. But this shouldn't make a problem as they are backwards compatible.

How were you connecting your card? As your old card only requires a single 6pin cable form your PSU, but this new one requires 2. Do you have two, are you using two already?

One final question, how were you connecting your old card to your monitor? As if you are using the same cable that worked then, we can rule out that as an issue.

 

[SOLVED]

I had my mate come over and he found the issue, my graphics card requires 12pin connectors to the power supply as I only had 8 plugged in, my power supply has max 8. So he let me borrow his powersupply untill I get a new one!

 

Glad you're sorted out Tallented... :up:

Call by again should you have any other problems..
