Computer wont boot - no monitor display, no beeps, no keyboard lighting

Nice, happy to see that it finally works. And that Dell is a nice system. Too bad that you are in Canada and that I don't have any money now, or I would try to buy the Dell with the G3220.

Too bad man. Dunno what I will do with it. I may just use it as a HTPC. Dunno if the Pentium G3220 will be sufficient for a 1080p TV, but we will see I suppose.

Now I also have a 4670K processor I do not need as well..................

And a full Alienware x51 with 3770 and a GTX 1060 6gb sitting idle as well. Thinking of selling it.

What do you guys suspect I should get for the system?

Maybe keep processor to set up a cheap second PC? Or just sell it?

The G3220 is good for a 1080p TV, I had a core 2 duo laptop hooked into one once and it was flawless. You can sell the Alienware, especially since it is an Alienware and those carry a price premium. The 4670k is kind of a tricky situation. You can sell it as well or as you said, build a second PC. Something with an R9 graphics card, one of those that perform similarly to a 1050.

I could pick up a R9 390x for a good price.

 

[anselmo]

That's a good idea. How much will it cost?

 

[sepheronx]

around $290

 

[anselmo]

And a 1050? The R9 seems a tad expensive. I was thinking about the 280, I believe.

 

[sepheronx]

surprisingly they are expensive - around $230 CAD for a 1050 ti.

Damm, now that I've converted it, a 1050 here costs the same. The R9 280 in England, which by the way, isn't my country costs around 85CAD used. Not a bad deal if you ask me. But in Canada, it might be different.
