I recently bought Asus PRIME B450-PLUS motherboard with Ryzen 7 2700 CPU and Kingston HyperX FURY RGB DDR4 2666 32GB RAM. I have an Asus GTX960 GPU, but attaching that to the motherboard just leaves the monitor black. I tried it with (ancient) MSI 7600GT (from Nvidia) and PowerColor R9 290 OC (from AMD) and with those everything works and I can access BIOS just fine.
I'm not listing the other stuff (drives for example) in the build, because currently there is nothing else attached that could have an effect.
Steps that I have tried so far:
- Removed everything (and I mean everything) and replaced them.
- GTX960 is confirmed working with my current PC.
- PSU is powerful enough (750w).
- GPU gets extra power with 6+2 pin connector.
- Tested 6+2 PSU power with two different cables (PSU is modular, also R9 290 receives power fine).
- Gave GPU power from another PSU (which is also confirmed working on current PC).
- Monitor is plugged correctly to the GPU (and not the motherboard).
- Monitor confirmed working (if plugged to 7600GT or GTX960 on current PC).
- Tested signal from GTX960 with DVI, HDMI and displayport with different monitors.
- Flashed most current BIOS to motherboard.
- Made sure BIOS had primary video as PCI-E (CPU doesn't contain GPU).
- There is nothing extra attached to motherboard (only CPU, RAM, PSU and GPU).
- Several websites confirm that the GPU and motherboard should be compatible (both support PCI-E x16 and UEFI).
At this point I'm at a loss. Anyone have any ideas?
TL;DR New motherboard doesn't like particular GPU, but works with other ones. All parts tested as working.
