I have a gaming PC with a Gigabyte GV-R795WF3-3GD Graphics Card that has been working good for a year but since week i turn on my PC and my monitor was blank (no display). Onboard graphics on the motherboard works fine when i remove the graphics card but Whenever the graphics card is in the PC and i power on the system i don't get a POST beep but i can hear the hard drive, CPU and fans spinning while its on.
At first i thought it was a power issue so i removed my old power supply and installed a higher wattage fully working PSU to see if the graphics card would come up but it did not work. I tried a different graphics card that didn't require any 6/8 pin for additional power from the PSU in the same slot and it worked OK, i finally got video display on the monitor.
I am trying to figure out if my original graphics card is dead or if the Motherboard or PCie slot is at fault here, i am unable to find a similar PC to test the Graphics card on if it will work based on how big the graphics card is and most PC nowadays are small form factor. I would appreciate some feedback or help to see if i can resolve this issue.
