No Signal

[Wgann101]

So I cleaned my pc today, and now there is no display signal. I have reseated the ram and gpu. I've tried different ports, hdmi and dp. I've turned it off and on a few times. Still nothing. 

 

Am I missing something? any thoughts?

Any signs of blinking lights or any sort of beeping? You could try using integrated graphics by plugging you cable into your motherboard instead of your graphics card.

No blinking lights that I see. I don't have Integrated graphics, it's a ryzen 5 2600x, b450m pro4, and a 3060ti fe

Have you tried removing your gpu and plugging your hdmi into your motherboard (instead of gpu) to see if there is a display output?

How would he get a display output without a gpu? He has no integrated graphics.

You sure you didn't by a mistake touch the power button on the PSU, or unplugged it?

no the whole system turns on. it seems like it should be working but no output to monitor.

Have you checked all the power cables are seated correctly?  Like the CPU power pin

24 hrs later, and every troubleshooting step attempted twice. I don't have a single clue to the problem, but I'm proud to say I disassembled the entire pc and hooked it up like a test bench and it just works. WTF. At least I know nothing is damaged from it running for a while now.

When you cleaned it, did you pull the gpu out? If you did, it was probably shorting on the case. I've seen it happen before. Difficult to diagnose.

I did pull out the gpu. Would you mind explaining how the short would occur so I know for future reference.
