My brother's computer recently crashed while loading a game. After the crash his PC would no longer output to any monitor from any output. The fans, LEDs, mother board LEDs, GPU LEDs and GPU fans all work when the system is turned on. He has a Ryzen 2600x, a RTX 2070 super, 8GB DDR4 2400 and a 80 plus gold 750 watt PSU. Its all on a MSI B350 gaminmg pro mother board. I have tested the ram and GPU in my system and they all work. I can't test the mother board or CPU because my system is Intel.

Is there any way I can figured out which part is faulty ?

he was already using it, before it crashed

If you're formally an engineer, avoid responsibility. That's what senior engineers get paid for.

ah ok,

you could indeed reset cmos like shrimpbrime said

or start the pc in safemode, with his or your gpu, and reset the drivers or something, otherwise i don't know what to do.
