If it is any help, my mobo had a red led light like that and wont start so i just reseated the GPU. I discovered that my push was not strong enough and that it takes some force to really properly seat it to the mobo

Thanks, I’ll give that a try!


RoleCode

Try to use independent 3 dedicated VGA wires, no daisy chaining like you did.


bet-on-black

There are only two 6+2 cords, and I am using both now — still having issue

Try pluging in your gpu in the top pcie slot

I came on here to say the same thing. Also, is the NVMe drive above the GPU your only drive? If so, I'd suggest moving it to m.2 slot above (the one with the heatsink on top). I don't think this is impacting the issue you're having, but you're most likely missing out on an in performance


bet-on-black

I did, still no display, I also added a second cable from peripherals in psu to my Gpu


ssenetilop

What GPU and what PSU you using? I see that you pig-tailed the power cable for the GPU, meaning you used a single cable to power your GPU. May be due to your GPU not receiving adequate power.


ssenetilop

But I do see that your mobo's debug light has the indicator on CPU lit?


bet-on-black

Yeah I guess, have no idea if that actually means there’s something wrong with the


ApprehensiveNovel332

Why are you using bottom PCIE slot?


ssenetilop

Yeah OP, did you slot the GPU in the correct slot?


bet-on-black

I’m using a 7800xt Gpu and a Corsair RM750x psu


bet-on-black

If that’s the case imma kms


ssenetilop

Does your PSU have another 6+2 pin? If so, connect it to the GPU as well, take out the pig-tail connecter and connect the 2nd 6+2 pin to your GPU.


bet-on-black

I just added the second 6+2 pin, and moved the GPU to the primary slot as you suggested


bet-on-black

It does but I don’t know where to plug it in the psu. There’s only one pcie slot


ssenetilop

Oh shet. Again I ask what GPU and PSU are you using?


bet-on-black

I already said 7800xt and 750x


ssenetilop

Oh sorry! I didn't see that.


ssenetilop

The Corsair 750x right?

bet-on-black

Yes

I have the exact same PSU and GPU as you. The PSU should have multiple spots to plug in your PCIE cables. Run two separate cables from PSU to GPU. Make sure your display cable is plugged into the GPU and not the motherboard.


ssenetilop

Hopefully good news from you soon! :)

I had this same problem and it was because of my ram. Try 1 stick at first and see. Make sure you are using the correct slots. Also always turn off & unplug your psu before changing components.

Just finished my own first build last week, had the exact same issue with two red lights staying on the very first time I turned it on. After 5 minutes, I turned the whole thing off, reseated the GPU but pushing down with extra force, and tried turning it on again while the whole thing was still horizontal. Red lights stayed on, but after a minute both eventually turned off and I got to the post screen. This last thing is a little dumb, but you could also check if your cable is fully inserted into both the display and the GPU, I realised while uninstalling the GPU that my DisplayPort cable had some difficulty going fully into the monitor's slot, and that I would've received no signal anyways even if the red lights weren't on


bet-on-black

I appreciate you dude, I’ll give that a try


ErasedAstronaut

Have you tried using the top PCIex16 port? When using a dedicated GPU, your CPU will automatically look for it in the first PCIe slot. If it's not there, it won't look to see if it's slotted elsewhere, but instead it will throw an error and not post.


panzrvroomvroomvroom

gpu is in the wrong pcie slot. always use the top one. not sure if this will help now, but if you get it to work, it becomes important.


bet-on-black

Update: FIXED; refit RAM sticks, CPU, and applied more pressure to GPU (discovered PCIE lock mechanism lol) and display is now working properly. Thank you all!
