RX 480 not outputting

So my RX480 has stopped outputting. The fans spin up initially but then turn off immediately afterwards. CPU and case fans all stay powered on. I've tried reseating it multiple times and making sure the 8 pin power cable is plugged in properly but it hasn't changed anything. My CPU is the R5 2600 so I can't boot from integratee graphics to check the BIOS or anything like that. Not sure what else there is I can do, any help is much appreciated

Do you have a modular PSU? If yes, check if the cable is slipping out.

PSU is modular but I've checked all the cables half a dozen times and they're all properly plugged in

Did you move/bump/drop the PC?

 

Even if not, take a look at the card and see if there is any obvious damage.

Didn't move the PC at all and there's no obvious damage to the GPU or any other components

Could it be a PSU issue? Which PSU do you have? Do you have a different GPU to test if it is the rx 480?

Got the Silverstone ST45SF-G. Only a year old so I doubt it's that. The power light on the GPU also stays on. Got a spare PC in my hometown I could use for testing, but that means taking my GPU on the train which I'm not eager about.

After fully dismantling and rebuilding the PC and changing the HDMI cable, it now successfully outputs. No idea what was going wrong but thanks for the help
