Problem with Rx 460 please help

[bigjoncoop]

Hey

 

Just built a new system inside of a thermaltake core P3 I am using the pci Riser cable so I can mount my video card vertically I have the new rx460 installed and when I turn on the system my TV says no signal so I swapped it out for my old video card and it works fine

 

I'm thinking it's the video card not to PCi extension cable  what do you think it is very difficult to install the graphics card into the motherboard without the Riser cable because of the way this case is built I would have to disassemble a whole bunch of it to get the graphics card into the PCI slot on the motherboard so I was hoping we couldn't narrow it down without doing that

 

By the way the fans spin up on the Rx 460  just my TV says no signal

 

 like I like I said it works fine with my old video card but not with the new rx460 I am using HDMI out to my television

I know you don't want to here this but I would try to install the card without the adapter. This will tell you either the card is busted or the adapter. It could be a power issue but you said the fans turn on so that shouldn't be it

That's exactly what I did. And it works. There is tons of information online about the occluded PCI Riser cables being bad and having to get replacements you would think after a couple years and thermaltake would fix it I mean that's really the whole point behind this case is to Showcase your graphics card

 

 it's just odd how the older HD 5850 works with the Riser cable but not the rx460 already got in touch with thermaltake and filled out their application to receive a new one can anyone suggest a decent priced one online
