Here is yet another one of these sad tales, lol. But this one has me stumped. The funny thing is, I think I had this problem the first time I built a PC, but I can't remember what I did to solve it or if this would even be the same. This one really has me scratching my head, and I could use some
I decided to build a new PC and purchases and used the following parts.
-MSI 890FXA-GD70 Motherboard.
-AMD FX8150 Processor
-3 Radeon 6970 Graphics Cards, connected via crossfire bridges.
-1000W Power supply.
-H60 CPU cooler
-7200 raptor Hard Drive
-CDROM drive
...think that's everything, in a basic sense.
So, the motherboard doesn't have a VGA or any kind of monitor connection, leaving me to rely on my graphics cards, which I attempted to use an HDMI cable. The issue is I get a "no signal" on my monitor. The MOBO powers up, fans spinning, lights twinkling, but there just isn't any output to the monitor.
The fans on the graphics cards are also spinning. I tried connecting the HDMI cable to each and every graphics card, but none of them are giving me a signal.
I have the MOBO on raisers to keep it from touching the case.
I have my ATX 24 and ATX 8 power connected.
I admit i'm no PC expert, but I thought I knew the basics of building a PC.
Any ideas of what to do next? Sure did cost a pretty penny on my budget.
Thanks in advanced for the help!
