Hello guys, bit of a strange one for you. My friend was recently playing Hogwarts Legacy on his PC using a 1070 ( Pushing it I know ) when all of a sudden it switched off, and now refuses to work as it did before. Not displaying any output, but switching on. I believe the motherboard my have been vaulted when it switched off damaging the primary PCI slot for the display out. Having overworked as the GPU, as it has been confirmed to still work in another PC. It's really quite hard to diagnose being so far away but this is what we have established: The Motherboard still accomidates a GPU and the fans turn on for a fraction before giving up, no LED's on the motherboard light up but the fans do spin. This is a PC that won't even display the BIOS. He's tried: Draining the PC of power Reseating components Making sure everything is plugged in correctly Checked memory moduals one at a time to see if they're hindering the POST Resetting the CMOS Specs: 5900x (No APU for onboard graphics testing) Corsair Rm850x PSU 4x8GB Corsair vengeance X570 Aorus Elite WiFi MB Was a GTX 1070 (Is currently a 970 for testing purposes The current 970 which we know works in another PC doesn't work in the broken current one. We're at a bit of a loss, naturally the next course of action is to try a new Motherboard but he's a bit strapped for cash at the moment. Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
