I just swapped out my PSU after the old one failed. All connections look correct, everything is powered on as expected. The CPU fan, SSD, GPU, and all lights are working properly. I’m sure the display isn’t getting power. I’ve reinserted the GPU, double-checked the cables, and even swapped RAM sticks. I tried booting with just one stick of RAM, but the other one also works—except it uses a different HDMI cable. I also tried a fresh CMOS battery just in case. Still nothing. Help would be really appreciated, as I’m running out of ideas. When I plug in a new HDMI cable, the monitor briefly lights up before cutting out completely. It seems like the connection is intermittent. Also, my PSU is a 4060TI with a Ryzen 5 3600 and an 850W power supply.

Yes, there are bios lights and beeps during startup.

Are the PSU cables you used previously compatible with the current PSU model?

Almost certain everything is from the new PSU, though I can verify again.
