Hey guys,
I'm building a new rig.
Basics are Asus X52 Sabertooth Mobo, I7 950, 6 Gb Corsair XMS3 DDR3, and GeForce GTX 570.
Powered by a 700W Corsair "Gaming Edition" PSU.
I have the basics connected inside the case....motherboard in place, CPU w/Heatsink+fan, RAM installed, and Video card. Both PCI-e power connectors are connected the the video card.
Upon powering it on, all the fans spin up, including the video card fan, the lights come on, but I'm not getting any signal from the monitor.
I've tried two different monitors, and every other open PCIe slot.
Still nothing.
I hope I'm just overlooking something very basic, but no matter what, I SHOULD get a signal to the monitor at this point, right? I should be able to at least see a BIOS screen by now, no?
Thanks for any ideas!
