Hi guys.
I'm having a big problem here, my pc doesn't send image to my monitor. let's go to the explanation. I'm building a new PC and until then everything was ok with a simple graphics card it broke I paid 10 euros, then my RTx 3060 PCI 4.0 12gb arrived, I installed it and it didn't work. my monitor had no signal. I switched to a cheap card and it didn't work either. I've done several tests and nothing works.

Let me detail my settings, remembering that all parts are new. except the processor

Hello.
I switched to a cheap card and it didn't work either.
That means the system either do not send the image to your monitor, or your cables and monitor are the issue.
If you had that system working before and you just switch the card to the new one (in your case the 3060) then your system detects your card and will install generic drivers.
That generic drivers assure the image on your screen until you install the original manufacturer driver. (in your case Nvidia)

With the old card it was working normally, I even installed windows and other software. When I put the new card I had no more signal on the monitor. After some procedures, such as removing the CMOS battery, I no longer receive an image of the old card

Also as point of note. You have one of the worst power supplies for a high end system. I recommend you spend a bit more money on one to avoid future troubles. You want one at least double of what you paid for that cv650

I did a test in another PC with a the same power supply, it`s work. :(

You need a BETTER QUALITY power supply. Its junk.

Depending on how old the PSU is, the psu is adequate for this build. Not good and not entirely bad. Quality does matter.

Troubleshooting is so much fun. Take everything out of the case and breadboard it, one part at a time, see if the MB/CPU/Memory boot = check error lights on the board, add the video card and check, replace the card and check, etc.

There has to be a reason neither Vcard wont work as desired.

As our friend said above, I don't know if I necessarily need a new font. all components are new, I'm building a new PC.

After many tests, I believe that the final solution will be to disassemble everything and do it again.

Is any other card work in that system normally and only the new one has problems?
Just asking cause I'm not sure if I read you correctly.

Pull parts out of case, run them, you may need motherboard bios update, then again if old card works in another system its possible your pcie slot is bad.

Yeah do that, if it still won't post RMA the motherboard. Alternative is getting the cheapest amd apu from Amazon just to post.

The PSU you have may not be great, but it should handle those parts just fine. You dont have a 400W power crazy GPU like some of us.

You need an isolation test.

Take the system apart, build it on top of the motherboards box (DO NOT USE THE ANTI STATIC BAG!!)

Motherboard, CPU, one stick of ram, one GPU.
PSU needs to be connected to the 24 and 8 pin headers on the mobo, and to the GPU. Nothing else.

See if it powers on, and if the LED's on the motherboard light up or give any clues.

My first two thoughts:
1. The mobo needs a BIOS update.
2. Display ID updater (This is a bug affecting 3060 and 3080Ti cards on displayport, HDMI should work) JayZ did a video on this uncommon bug a few days ago.
3. What cheap graphics card are you using? If it lacks UEFI support, you may get a blank screen if the BIOS had CSM disabled.
