Hi there, i just built a new pc and am having issues.
When i turn it on theres no signal to the monitor.
I’ve tried both hdmi and displayport but neither work.
Everything appears to have power and the gpu lights are on.
Any suggestions please?

Thanks

I presume you're plugging into the gpu and not the motherboard?

Are there any troubleshooting codes?  BIOS BEEP codes?  Can you try a different graphics card?

I guess you've tried every port on the monitor - it couldn't be defaulting to an input you didn't try...

Update - Appreciate all your responses and the problem is now resolved.
Im not sure what fixed it but i ended up reseating all the plugs and then tested booting with 1 stick of ram each time and eventually it worked. Thanks!
