Rx 470 - No signal

[Wojii]

Hi there.

I just bought second-hand pc from ebay. Seller is claiming everything was working before he posted it, but I just had "no signal detected".

PC Specs:

Ryzen 3 1300

Rx 470 4gb Sapphire

8gb Kingston 2666

Evga 600w

a320m-pro

 

I swapped rx470 with rx590 and everything was working as it should. However, rx470 still was not working in my main pc. I tried it with 3 different monitors as well different cables HDMI, DVI and Display Port. Only once I managed to get some kind of "feedback" from the rx470 which was white/pink artefact screen.

I didnt try to update the BIOS since newer card was working just fine on a320. I try both modes of BIOS on gpu (V Bios switch) with the same results.

Just want to ensure that gpu in fact is faulty or I am missing something specific about this card?

Thank you

try cleaning it and if you can, use a heat gun/hair dryer. I have a similar problem and am trying these. hope it works for both of us.
