Graphics card no display

[avruofe]

Hello, so i had a recent problem, so say, the electricity in my house went out, and when it was back, the gpu doesn't work. when i turn on my pc, no display from the gpu. the fans do spin, but no display at all, not detected in windows device manager, taskmanager, nothing in bios so far too, i am wondering what might be the problem? would the power outage be enough to kill a gpu? thanks for the help (i'm using an old Radeon AMD HD 7770)

It can be a psu problem do you have any other gpu or integrated graphics to try booting the system

What are your full system specs? Makes and models please.

 

Was the system plugged into a UPS or surge protector or directly into the wall outlet?

With what I know about aero cool power supplies it is highly likely that paired with the age of the system(age of the GPU and PSU mainly) and the fact that it was plugged directly into a wall outlet and not into a surge protector of any sort, it is highly likely that the GPU was killed during the power issue. I'd replace the GPU and the PSU, if you don't want to replace the PSU at minimum run the system on a surge protector. With the age of this system I'd also consider potentially looking for or building something a bit newer.
