Hello, I finished building my PC, the GPU fans spin but when I tried to connect it to HDMI there is no display and BIOS and Windows don't recognize it, any idea on what to do?
It also doesn't recognize the integrated gpu but it works.
Thanks in advance.

Are you able to see any physical damage on the card? Evidence of it being dropped, crushed, or generally mishandled? Also this might be a dumb question but do you have the card properly installed? AKA is it securely installed in the topmost PCIe slot? Are the external PCIe power connector cables securely attached to the card?

There are books for troubleshooting computers.

First thing I'd do is put the motherboard on a non conductive surface, ensure the cpu is inserted correctly, then ensure the ram is in the correct slots-insert firm and squared (Get your motherboard manual out and read it).

Then reinsert the gpu into the pcie slot firm and square, hook the monitor cable up to the gpu and ensure the correct port is selected on the monitor,

Clear CMOS (Read your motherboard manual)


Hook the power supply up to the motherboard and gpu (Read your motherboard manual and gpu manual) and then a power switch on the correct header.

Turn the power supply switch to the ON position and then hit the motherboard power switch.

Always test your components out of the case before installing them.

Also Read your motherboard manual for correct stand off positions in the case, check the stand offs for correct positioning in the case.


If you can't figure it out still get to a shop if there is no spare pc to check the gpu in.

You have no igp unless if you have an AMD G series CPU (5700G, 6500G etc)

Thanks in advance

Yeah pull your parts out of the case and follow my directions above.

TAKE ESD precautions!

Will Try!

Yeah you have no igp its an X CPU not a G CPU.

The Display adapter for igp on the motherboard is determined by what cpu you have. You have an X cpu which has no igp circuitry to drive the motherboard video ports.

Do you have the igp drivers installed? Go to AMDs website and search for drivers for the 7600x, the new RDNA2 igp on the 7000 series CPUs might require the drivers to be installed for it to be detected correctly

@P.D if you connect the HDMI cable to the motherboard output (I'm assuming here yours does have an HDMI out), does it display anything when you try to boot the machine?

So you can at least boot into Windows? If affirmative, does the RX6600 appear in device manager even if with an exclamation mark?

The RX6600 does not appear in Windows
It may sound like stupid questions from me, but is the card well seated in its PCI-E slot? And its power connector nicely seated as well?

THE DRIVERS THANK GOD, That is bad that this gpu didn't come with the drivers because without the IGPU it was doomed

Thanks for all the help!
