My PC wont turn on after I moved my case fans

TerQi

So I just got my new pc yesterday it's a I5 10400 and a GTX 1650 with 8gb of ram and I tried changing one of the fans to an exhaust witch required me to unplug the fan connectors and re do the cables for the fans I didn't touch anything else and I also tried the Cmos battery thing please help me all the fans spin but I dont have a display output my fans are the "viking dagger"  brand I'm not sure if this is useful information or not but I just added it anyway Update: I took it to a repair shop and I somehow killed my motherboard by changing the fans?? Oh well atleast it wasn't the GPU thanks to everyone that responded to my thread

That doesn’t make much sense. Taking out and reinstalling the Cmos battery should’ve been necessary since that just resets your BIOS. Does your motherboard report any kind of error code?

You might try connecting your display directly to your motherboard instead of your graphics card (if you have on board graphics) just to check that that is not the issue.

Is it possible that I shorted out my GPU because of moving the fans?

Alright then. Just to make sure there is absolutely no signal to the display. If so you may try and reinstall the graphics card just in case you accidentally have it just a little bit of a bump to where it is not seated correctly now. If you feel uncomfortable doing this then I wouldn’t recommend doing it.

Very unlikely in my opinion

I had the same problem after reconnecting my fans to tidy up. Does your system start and then shut down or just refuse to start at all? Mine would start (fans would almost start moving) then stop as if a power limit was reached or something. 

 

Turns out the problem was that the fans were connected to the wrong headers from the case and switching them around solved the problem. You may have done something similar and connected Fan A headers / cables to Fan B's.

Since you said the problem started after you reconfigure your fans setup.
Tried unplugging all the case fans yet?
