Hey everyone, I'm looking for some guidance on upgrading my old LGA 1155 rig. I have an Intel Core i5-3470 and am considering the Xeon E3-1270 Killer series. I went with an Aliexpress unit for $40, but it arrived recently and I haven't been able to get any video output from it using my RX 480. It worked fine with my older i5 in the same build. Recently, I tried it with a GT 710 and it functioned perfectly. After booting in safe mode, flushing drivers, clearing CMOS, updating everything, and even disabling integrated graphics, I still didn't see any video signal from AMD's GPU. Thanks for any advice—this has been frustrating, especially with such an old CPU compared to the newer parts.
