I recently purchased a new monitor and don’t have enough desk space for my old one. Now that I have it, I still don’t get any signal from it. I’ve tested HDMI and DP cables—they work fine—but nothing appears. I also checked the display settings to detect it, but it still doesn’t show up.

With the integrated graphics on your CPU, have you connected the HDMI/DP cable to the motherboard's port instead of the GPU? If this setup functions properly, it could indicate an issue with the GPU placement or its operation.

I've also experimented with DP on the GPU (functioning with my primary 240hz display) and HDMI on the motherboard for the other setup.

Everything is fine, I was utilizing the motherboard HDMI while a GPU HDMI was present
