Hello everyone, the project I just finished is here below. I prepared it for the RTX 3080. After installing and turning it on with integrated graphics, everything functions properly and works with my LG 38 ultra wide monitor I bought from Costco. However, it seems there might be a delay before I can get my hands on the 3080. So I switched to my older GTX 970, and now the screen is completely blank. It still powers on, but only the green and white LEDs at the top are lighting up, which don’t have labels next to them. They were working before I added the GPU. I’m sure power is reaching the GPU since it lights up and the fans spin. I’m wondering what steps I can take to resolve this issue and get my GTX970 to function correctly. You can check the monitor here: https://www.costco.com/lg-ultragear-38%2...71950.html Prices include shipping, taxes, and any available discounts.

Open BIOS settings and switch the graphics device to PCIe instead of the integrated GPU.

I checked the ASUS TUF z490 BIOS settings, but there’s no option listed for this feature. Since the manual doesn’t mention it, you may need to adjust it through the device settings or contact ASUS support directly.

It should exist somewhere. Even inexpensive motherboards include this BIOS feature. In the worst situation, the CMOS is cleared. Typically, the motherboard recognizes a graphics card and handles its output. After turning on the system, connect the HDMI or DP cable to the GTX970.

Found it! Managed to start it using the GPU while the iGPU was off. Installed the NVIDIA drivers then connected the cable to the 970 and it worked!
