Hello today i built a new desk for my setup, i disconnected all the cables ect, then made new desk cabled managed ect made it look nice. Then when booting my pc again i could not get all the 3 monitors to connect sometimes 1 or none. All of the monitors worked completely fine before hand. I was running DP TO HDMI DP TO DP and HDMI TO DP the reason for this was because they was the cables that were long enough to reach my pc.  With some messing around for a hour or so i was able to get all 3 monitors connected. By doing this i had to Run all 3 with DP that i found laying around the house. The only port on my 1080TI that would not work was the HDMI port. Lucky i have 3 dp so i am able get 3 working. i am asking if there is anything im missing to why this HDMI is now not working on my PC. Maybe i bent the connection on the gpu  when pulling out the cables but the socket seems completely fine. its weird to me as i do not know why its done it. If i can not find a reason for why this HDMI  on my gpu is not working il just by longer DP cables. Any suggestions ?

If you have only the HDMI plugged in, does it work? Does it turn off when you add another cable?

I WILL find your ITX build thread, and I WILL recommend the SIlverstone Sugo SG13B

 

Primary PC:

i7 8086k - EVGA Z370 Classified K - G.Skill Trident Z RGB - WD SN750 - Jedi Order Titan Xp - Hyper 212 Black (with RGB Riing flair) - EVGA G3 650W - dual booting Windows 11 and Fedora Linux - Black and green theme, Razer brainwashed me.

Draws 400 watts under max load, for reference.

 

PSU tier list

How many watts do I need?

Also earlier when this was happening windows once detected a monitor but i could not see the properties in the settings ect, like it was not responsive and the monitor did not get a signal
