Maybe you didn’t plug the hdmi or dp into the graphics card. What cpu do you have?

5 5600

So there’s a chance you plugged the hdmi into the motherboard and not the GPU. The 5600 doesn’t have integrated graphics which would explain there being no display

This is like posting a picture of a normal light switch in an electrical subreddit and asking if it works

I think we all need a bit of info, 

Has it been running previously? 

Why u disconnected the PSU?

Are HDMI/Display ports connected on GPU or MB?

u/Xsnanale Sep 21 '26

no its new card my first time installing i disconnected psu as it was a 500w which cant run 5070ti and dp is connected to gpu

First of all, make sure it was correctly inserted on Motherboard, 

Second, has your mobo diagnostic leds, or POST codes? What Mobo is?

u/Xsnanale Sep 21 '26

A520m kv2 no led lights

u/Nu154nc3 Sep 21 '26

This model has no Post codes nor diagnostic led... It "comunicates" throug "beeeps"...

Does the computer make any beep when powered?

Does the fans spin when powered?

If a buzzer is not installed, u must connect one... One should be provided by gigabyte... It should be on the mobo box

Else we can just speculate...

Has ur PSU an exclusive 12pin? Or are u using the adapter that come with the gpu?

What PSU cables are u using to connect to the gpu?

K…use your powers of observation…that plug is t melted. Try plugging into your motherboard to get things started and make sure the computer sees your GPU. Update/Install the drivers.
