Maybe try and give some more info like:

 

What is the rest of your system's specs?

Which PCI slot did you put the GPU in?

Did you plug your monitor into the GPU or motherboard? 

Did you make sure your BIOS is set to use PCI Express Graphics?

 

I assume you didn't forget to plug in the 6-pin PCI power cable

Does you mum know you're here?

Have you tried plugging the display into the mobo instead?

Make sure to quote me or tag me when responding to me, or I might not know you replied! Examples:

Buy whatever product is best for you, not what product is "best" for the market.

 

Interested in computer architecture? Still in middle or high school? P.M. me!

 

I love computer hardware and feel free to ask me anything about that (or phones). I especially like SSDs. But please do not ask me anything about Networking, programming, command line stuff, or any relatively hard software stuff. I know next to nothing about that.
