I think either my CPU or GPU failed right from the start.
Hello, I just assembled my first PC and think the CPU (Ryzen 5 3600) might not have been working right from the start. Everything powers on but the monitor shows no signal. I suspect either the GPU (GTX 1660) or the CPU itself is faulty. Since I don’t have a spare GPU and my CPU lacks integrated graphics, I’m unsure which one failed. Both can be returned, but I’ve attached the spec list for reference. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Reach out to a friend or a local electronics shop for a review. Don’t focus too much on color options and keep an open mind about whether it looks solid overall.
