Need an advice

[ThatAsianKid]

Hi guys! So, I'm pretty new to this whole forums thing and I badly need an advice. What happened was, my previous PSU just failed. So, I brought a new one. Now, with my current PSU which is a YGT 700w, which is generic, I'm having trouble using my GPU as when I plug my VGA cable to it, the screen says that no signal is detected. Now, this have me plugging the VGA directly to the Mobo (Mother Board), which is I do not want to happen, and also one my ram slot or the ram itself seems to be corrupted. I now end up with a 4gb GSKILL Ripjaw RAM, Intel Pentium G4560 CPU and my GTX750Ti 2GB 64Bit GPU. I'm basically thorn between changing the RAM or the Mobo itself. Either way, I will also be upgrading my GPU. This setup cost me at around 15,000 Philippine peso. I need help, I don't know what to change first as I really do have a tight budget right now. Please help.

 

PS. I'm not really a techie guy so please do elaborate your responses. TIA.

This is bit confusing.
Does system boot up at all? Like fans spinning? Do you get image when connecting monitor to mobo?

Well, yeah. It's running, I have images on the monitor when I plug it directly to the mobo. All fans i also working.

Then it's the GPU which is the issue. Does it have 6pin PCIe power connector?

Apparently, no. Its just a direct to the mobo type of gpu. It doesnt have a slot for connectors and all that.

Ok, have you tried to re-seat it or tried using another slot? Would it be possible to try with DVI or DP and adapter for VGA?

The gpu has an DVI, VGA and HDMI port. I tried all three and still no signal was detected. That is why im now directly plugged to my mobo. The fan on my gpu does work tho. So i dont know what the heck is the matter with this thing.

Yeah, sadly I don't either. Other than testing all variables first.
It could be damaged at some point, but that's really hard to say for sure.

Well, im already keen on upgrading my gpu since it gives me a lot of headache. Lol. So, should i first upgrade my ram or just replace my mobo. I mean, since im running with a 4gb ram rn, its bottlenecking.
