Good to know, how long are warranty usually for graphics cards?

No it's not oc at all. Thanks people, I'll give these attempts a go. But, I'm grateful that it doesn't sound as drastic -fingers crossed-

I haven't removed the RAM. But, might of been unseated with movement - will check this. I mean please let the suggestions keep coming. As I'll most likely run through them all after work today.

So I had a dodgy fan on my Kraken X61 radiator, which was sounding very beat-up and sluggish. One day last week I got the "CPU fan speed error". I dismantled parts of the PC and purchased some compressed canned air to clean out the rig. Turns out the other fan on the radiator, was never plugged in as I could never find an additional socket. So I swapped them over and voila the fan was spinning again. But, I had a problem... the screen was not responding with no output once I had loaded everything back-up. Now I'm concerned that I placed the canned air too close to the GFX card and introduced humidity. I want to run through a check-list if possible of troubleshooting, of what some experts would do, in order to clarify the issue. It might even be something very simple, but want to understand the best way to trouble-shoot so that I'm not stabbing in the dark. Failing that, do I have a leg to stand on with any kind of warranty with the graphics card? It was purchased 17 March, 2016. Also, I don't have a speaker hooked-up to my desktop, so unsure of how I can hear the POST beeps. My rig build is as per below: CPU: Intel Core i5-6600K 3.5GHz Quad-Core Processor (£198.32 @ Aria PC) CPU Cooler: NZXT Kraken X61 106.1 CFM Liquid CPU Cooler (£107.33 @ Aria PC) Motherboard: Asus Z170-A ATX LGA1151 Motherboard (£121.63 @ More Computers) Memory: Kingston HyperX Fury Black 16GB (2 x 8GB) DDR4-2133 Memory (£59.14 @ More Computers) Storage: Samsung 850 EVO-Series 500GB 2.5" Solid State Drive (£110.99 @ Amazon UK) Storage: Western Digital Caviar Blue 1TB 3.5" 7200RPM Internal Hard Drive (£41.76 @ Amazon UK) Video Card: Sapphire Radeon R9 390 8GB Nitro Video Card (£268.98 @ Ebuyer) Case: NZXT H440 (Glossy White/Black) ATX Mid Tower Case (£92.33 @ Aria PC) Power Supply: EVGA 750W 80+ Gold Certified Fully-Modular ATX Power Supply (£99.98 @ Novatech) Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 Pro Full (32/64-bit) (£29.99) Monitor: Asus VG248QE 144Hz 24.0" Monitor (£219.98 @ Amazon UK)

Slightly worried, that I placed the canned air too close to the GPU, after cleaning the whole machine. As now when I boot the PC up it does not display output. The fans on the GPU still run and the rest of the system seems to boot up. I know this is a painful thing to check for, but what check list should I follow now?

Hmm, I have a feeling it's a dead fan. NZXT FX V2 140mm Performance PWM Fan It seems to be out of stock: https://www.amazon.co.uk/NZXT-FX-140-Radiator-Fan/dp/B012FZ1ZCE/ref=sr_1_1?s=computers&ie=UTF8&qid=1518552722&sr=1-1&keywords=NZXT+FX+V2+140mm+Performance+PWM+Fan Any alternative suggestions? I have Amazon Prime, was hoping to get them for tomorrow to London.

This was my thoughts. It still spins, it's just clunky.

CPU fan is running really slow and clunky. The other fan has never run, not sure why this is the case. POST is giving me this error. I'm running Kraken X61 cooling system on an Asus Z710 series motherboard. What check list should I go through to get this resolved? I have compressed air and ready to clean radiator. But, wondering if something else I should try first.

Yes I can't find that port on my ASUS Z170-A was hoping someone could point out a bit easier where it should be located. As for the drivers I did that and received the Intel ProSet thing - which I'm ever so confused with.

I'm hoping the right section. I need help installing my Gigabyte GC-WB867D-I Wi-Fi card. I have an ASUS Z170-A motherboard, in which I'm struggling to find the correct connection to connect the card to the USB. I also have a problem in that my external CD drive busted. Therefore, I need someone to point me in the direction of the steps to install the drivers. As I looking at there site for this and installed something called Intel PROSET and it didn't really do anything. I'm really hungover as well so things are pretty tough as they are...

No luck... I can't seem to find it among the multitude of options. Also, take a look at the product https://www.asus.com/uk/Motherboards/Z170-A/ Promotes the wi-fi go feature.

Thank you for that absolutely unhelpful and generic advice. I've already taken a look on there and am finding it hard to locate the correct method...

Can someone point me in the correct direction for the wireless network drivers for the ASUS Z170-A? It's kind of crazy that this isn't included on the CD. It seems the latest driver for the WI-FI Go! only goes up to ASUS-DELUXE... Many thanks in advance.

Two separate 6+2 pins one side is 8 pin does this go into the PSU or the GPU?

I'm a little confused though as to the cable set-up. I have two 8-PIN slots on my Sapphire R9 390 Yet this cable doesn't want to seem to allow me: Do I need to use both!
