#disconnected power supply&GPU?
320 messages · Page 1 of 1 (latest)
its a bity hard for me to explain without being visual, i suggest you just search on youtube on tutorials on how to connect em, preferably Linus tech tips or other popular tech youtubers, and by god not the vice pc build tutorial
I understand its more of a visual task to explain, i mean i have no issue having a video chat and getting through this, ill also look up a tut on YouTube to see how to do it
For anyone else that sees this, where my finger is placed - i need to get this behemoth part OFF, so i may access the wiring underneath (its the bottom of the pc housing the power supply unit)
:tada: Congrats @stiff basin, you levelled up to 1! :tada: 
That is connected?
Everything underneath looks to not be connected
When i have a peak through the bunch of holes
Probably spare cables
Its plug and play - just enjoy your system
If something is unplugged it is quite easy to find the culprit
Odd... I did try to switch it on and, well, nothing?
Did you flick the power supply switch and press the power button?
Yeah done that
Yeah on I
Hold the power button with the power on
Some motherboards just take their sweet time (hold for like 2 seconds)
Let there be light....
Well i did press it a bunch of times
And nothing
holding it however....
Enjoy your rig! just do this:
If you have a discrete GPU then you need to plug your monitor cable into the graphics card, not the motherboard. This can be found on the Quick Start Guide which was emailed to you, or you can download it with the /tag guide command.
Some cases/motherboards/psus do that. Weird stuff
Yeah plug it into the GPU part or something
Yeah
Yeah checking now if it boots
It should do!
Just if you plugged it in afterwards it might not like it
The monitor cables
Hmmm, no signal on my monitor
Give it a quick restart and should spin to life
check the motherboard EZ DEBUG LEDs aswell
they are located top right
Cant see any LEDs switched on
👍
Make sure those cables are in the right place!
And if using DP make sure its fully in - I have accidentally like half plugged it and just give that a quick push
Hmmmm still no signal but pc restarted on its own
Hmm.
Can you take a video if possible? or a photo of the motherboard when it is turned on?
Should i try to use the other ports to get a signal?
If you were to get signal that will probably be because it was not plugged in right
but yeah you can try
Lets try the other port...
:tada: Congrats @stiff basin, you levelled up to 2! :tada: 
Yeah no signal
Take that photo/video and I will see if there are any obvious problems
Right just give me a second im gonna lay the pc on its side
All good
looks like his gpu aint connected ngl
I was wondering that too
But then, the wire seems way too short to get through to the power supply
Rtx 4070
Ventus x2
anychance you can just show them cables that look disconnected like turn your flash on with a picture
just so i can confirm
Yeah sure!
thanks
Two wires, one feeding through, then THAT one
Which to me, well, looks important lol
Okay so its spare, that's good to know, and also one possibility checked off the list
It looks like it works
Might be something monitor related
You sure your connections are fully in?
Okay so possibly monitor, and yeah i double checked
your DP or HDMI is plugged into GPU right?
Using DP, source on monitor set to DP
Full specs please?
does your monitor have multiple DP ports? if so make sure your on whichever DP your plugged into, (DP1/DP2) some monitors don't automatically convert to the right one
it may sound stupid but i have done this millions of times myself
ah ok
:tada: Congrats @warped adder, you levelled up to 3! :tada: 
Should i try HDMI instead? See if anything changes?
Can you take a picture of the GPU connection on the motherboard?
See if the clip is engaged
Its definitely engaged since the GPU is switched on
Fans are spinning
Is the pc turned on here?
sure, but me or accent will still try to get your DP working
I am still thinking the computer works
Well if HDMI works, ill have it set up and all, then work on getting DP to work
:tada: Congrats @stiff basin, you levelled up to 3! :tada: 
ye if thats what you wanna do
HDMI also doesnt work, oof
That plug down the middle of the picture, bottom middle of motherboard
Anything needing to be connected there?
The usb 3.0 is not plugged in but shouldn't matter
Take a picture at that angle here
@rugged mica
Can not really see to be honest
Might be a monitor issue maybe
Then again, how? Switched on and DP is fully inserted
What uses these wires?
Okay coool
This is a weird weird weird issue
take all of them out but one
Okay let me try that
Jeez these things are shoved in there good
Im scared ill break it lol
Before ive even touched it, it looks like one is slightly upright than the rest
Would that disconnect it if it was, or has it got some leeway
There are CLIPS!
Yes that would do it
Reseat that one
Yess after i unclipped they're hard to pull out ahaha!
They shouldn't be too difficult
Well that one i mentioned, goes back in properly on one end, the other end is fighting
Fully unclipped?
Fully
And now THAT side is slightly upright
Rather than originally
Doesnt seem to want to slot in
Look at the bottom one, that side is slotted in
However this side, you can see its not just slightly
The clip doesnt attach
Ouch
With a bit of force
Hurt my hand but got it to stick in
It works?
No its okay! Ahaha
Glad its working!!!!!!
I got all weekend to fiddle with it
Ahaha thanks!!
Im upgrading from a laptop 2060 so...
Im excited....
I have to say though, Hp Omen laptops are pretty damn good
:tada: Congrats @stiff basin, you levelled up to 4! :tada: 
I upgraded from the 3060 and damn it was an improvement
Ooof now im even more excited going from a 2060
Yessir!

No problem!
tbh i was gonna reccomend ram, but i thought it was stupid, the first thing i do in that situation is my ram, but hell ye enjoy it dude
Weird that there was no indicator
Ahaha it was poking out just that litttleee bit
Caught my eye as i was staring at it hopelessly
Some dude at DPD probably accidentally dropped it lol
Probably
accidentally? shit you trippin if you think it was accidentally
they probs full on kicked that shit from tim buck two to his door
Lmaooo bro probably kicked it about
Exactly!! 😂😂
LMAO yup
i pray to god that dont happen with me, UPS deliveres cyberpower shit to me
and UPS is always great whenever i get delivered from them
never ever a single mark on any package or product
Its dpd here
DPD delivers CPUK systems
oh well i ordered a keyboard from cyberpower and ups delivered it, unless it was DPD then passed onto UPS for simplicity?
idk
i dont think theres any close DPD dispatchers near me
UPS or royal mail is pretty mutch the only companies that deliver here
and amazon
Yeah basically
it was probabbly DPD then passed to UPS
oh no
unless i ordered from ibuypower and not cyberpwoer
Bought this beast and a 0.5ms 240hz monitor and watch me still get shit on my Taq-56s in MWII
