I was playing farming simulator when I stretched my leg and the pc turned off I restarted but no video output or rgb on the gpu, the rest of the computer would not fine. I tested it on a completely different pc and stil would only give me the three lights above the pcie cables I would also hear a buzz in the hou but that's about it.  Pretty sure a fuse just blew but I still don't wanna accept that fate just yet

Any help or comment are appreciated 

Thank you, izi

If it does the same thing in a separate PC, the card is at fault. What power supply make and model do you have? Is that white cable an extension?

Did you hit it? How old is your GPU?

What's that.

If you have intergrated graphics on your CPU, try plugging your monitor cable into your motherboard, should get you to boot.
And if it does, that most likely means the GPU's gone.
I'm also unsure about the cables. Why do you have 2 same connectors, and one white? What kinda PSU you using?

What's the relevance of you stretching your leg? Are you saying you kicked the PC, or no?

It appears to be two cables from the PSU, with a white extension off of the pigtail on one of them, to fill the 3x8-pins on the card. Strange choice aesthetically at the very least.

Corps aren't your friends. "Bottleneck calculators" are BS. Only suckers buy based on brand. It's your PC, do what makes you happy.  If your build meets your needs, you don't need anyone else to "rate" it for you. And talking about being part of a "master race" is cringe. Watch this space for further truths people need to hear.

Didn't even notice that. No comment.

I tried the integrated graphics and those work perfectly find i kicked the power cord out the psu when I stretched, and I have a Thermaltake dps though power 1050 when I was trouble shooting i had made a mess of the pcie cables that's why they are all messy i didn't even power putting in the third pcie back

Oh boy.

What do you have your psu plugged into? The wall? No surge protector?

No surge protector straight into the wall, to be honest I've never thought about that since I've never had an issue ever in the 8 years thays I've owned a computer
