Ok so I got home from work. My computer starts all the lights and fans turn on for everything. But my monitors, I have two, are not turning on. Just a black screen, I’ve taken out my GPU, switched its sockets, I’ve also tried on monitor at a time, as well as unplugging everything and taking the mobo battery out. Any suggestions on what I should do? Never had this issue before.

 

 

- Specs -

GTX 1080 Ti

i7 8700k (not overclocked right now)

16 GB G Skill Trident Ram

Asus ROG Strix 370z MOBO

M.2 SSD

4TB HDD

750 Watt Power Supply, Corasair 

CPU is water cooled 

 

Never had an over heating problem, like I said all fans and lights in the computer turn on as well. On the MOBO there is a green light but that just means the PSU is on stand by, any help greatly appreciated.

You should try to eliminate either the monitors or the gpu (integrated or not). Try the monitors with another PC, and try outputting to a different monitor or TV. The problem will go with the part.

Update, I plugged my monitors into my integrated GPU driver in the motherboard, it started just fine. Monitors worked, also tried a friends computer and it works with my monitors. Any idea what might be causing the GPU to do this? the fans turn on when it starts, don’t really have the money for a new 1080 Ti so wondering if there’s any fix? Or maybe a place to fix it?

Have you tried all ports? Since it's a 1080ti it has 4 video outs total. 1 HDMI and 3 DisplayPort ports. I would try one of the other ports and see if all 4 are dead. If so, I would check if your card is still under warranty (if from a big name/reputable company, most likely yes) and RMA it. If not, well, you have nothing to lose by taking it apart and cleaning it so you can check for damage.
