I would power off your PC, turn off the PSU and then Spam the Power button 10ish times to clear out all the power from your system, Then I would re seat the Graphics card ( take it out of the PCIE slot and them Reinsert it, check the connections of your display cable in both your GPU and monitor. If none of that works then maybe try a defferent display cable

If you are using the display cable that came with your monitor that could be the issue. The includes cables can be a bit crap and ive had one die on me before
