Hey there! I recently purchased a nearly complete setup—case, motherboard, RAM, CPU, and cooler. To test it, I connected my friend’s power supply and an RTX 2060. Neither produced any output, whether from the motherboard or the GPU. I switched to a different power supply and a lower-end Radeon 6450, but still nothing. I re-seated the RAM and CPU several times, replaced the BIOS battery, and checked all the components. The parts I have are: Ryzen 5 1600, ASUS Prime B350m-a, 8GB DDR4 2400, and an RGB Wraith Prism cooler. Any suggestions or tips would be super helpful—I’ve searched everywhere for advice.

No output means fans and lights either stay off or are present without any video connection.

Everyone works, the prism shines bright. I’m struggling. My friend had to dismantle his computer twice for me, and he won’t want to do it again. Still, we made sure to connect the 6+2 connector properly. The fans ran smoothly on the card too.

I wasn't sure exactly what the solution was, since I tried several approaches, but now it's all working! I'm really excited and glad to be on the right track. Thanks for your support!
