GPU doesn't show display and the fans aren't spinning

[VanjaGrozni]

I have a GTX 1660 super that doesn't show display. I bought it brand new to replace my rx 570 which had the same problem of not showing any pictures and fans not spinning. I tried unplugging the CMOS battery, booting with one stick of RAM, checking the cable, the monitor, the cables I plugged it in with, and still nothing. CPU is working fine,the fans are spinning up, it is just the GPU that is screwing me over. I am suspecting the PCIe slot is broken or something. Forgot to mention that the 570 booted once and then shut off.

 

TLDR:

GPU has no display and the fans aren't spinning up 

 

I appreciate every reply

Are you plugging in all the power cables? Some pics would help

Welcome to the forums!
Specs would also be nice. If you can snag the exact make and model of your PSU that might be helpful
Is the build POSTing? Like, can you see it on the network/see the drive activity light flashing? Did it ever POST?

Thanks. The specs are a random 450W PSU GTX 1660 super, i7 2600k and ASRock H61M-DGS I have 16gb of ddr3b and that would be it

Nope, never got a post. I just noticed there is 4 holes in my Mobo close to the ones for the CPU cooler. Idk that might be a part of the problem

When installing a new GPU without drivers. It is normal to have a blank screen. Also many GPU's fans will not spin until it reaches 55 degrees Celsius.  Those 4 holes on the motherboard are there so that you can mount a CPU cooler. So you are saying you have an additional 4 holes in your motherboard?

Does it post without the GPU? This chip has an iGPU.

It looks like there are 8 cooler mounting holes on this mobo, 4 for a cooler, and another 4 for a stock cooler in a slightly different orientation

Unfortunately no

They are not made by a machine. They are maybe half a cm off to the side and kinda crooked

It does not

Are they breaking any traces? Or do you have an image of the motherboard and holes if youre not sure?

Well then your problem isn't the GPU. It's probably the mobo.
Pull the entire thing out of the case, build it on a box with no GPU and see if it posts. If it doesn't, you're gonna need to find the mobo speaker and install that, then it should beep at you. This is the ASRock beepcode list for that generation of boards

If it doesn't beep at you, try with a different PSU. If that doesn't work, you have a dead mobo which is unsurprising given that it's a dozen years old
