I just completed assembling my new PC. It powers on, but the GPU isn’t showing up. It gets power and turns on, yet it doesn’t appear in Task Manager or the Nvidia control panel. The display port is connected to the GPU and I see output on the monitor. Whenever I launch a game, it crashes. I tried reseating the graphics card three times, but that didn’t help. After reseating, I forgot to connect the PCIE cable, so the card displayed a red LED indicating it wasn’t plugged in. I also had difficulty inserting the GPU into the slot—it didn’t produce the usual click sound. Please let me know if anyone can assist.

Consider constructing your system using the chassis. It looks like an issue might be with your GPU not fitting correctly. It could also indicate a misalignment on the motherboard inside the case. Using a case-based build helps avoid these problems.

Your graphics card has been identified. Are the drivers updated?

It hasn't been installed yet, but it isn't appearing in the Nvidia control panel. Drivers are still being permitted for GeForce Experience.
