Title: Help me guys, 1st build, nothing displaying Post by: cashnone on February 03, 2014, 05:50:49 PM Hey everyone,
So this is what I have: 1 MSI Z87 MPower Intel Z87 LGA 1150 Motherboard ( http://www.frys.com/product/7697927?site=sr:SEARCH:MAIN_RSLT_PG ) 1 Intel Core i3-4130 3.4GHz Processor ( http://www.frys.com/product/7869419?site=sr:SEARCH:MAIN_RSLT_PG ) 3 XFX Double D R9-280X-TDFD Radeon R9 280X 3GB 384-Bit GDDR5 CrossFireX ( http://www.frys.com/product/7971370?site=sr:SEARCH:MAIN_RSLT_PG ) 1 Corsair AX1200i 1200 Watt Power Supply Unit (http://www.frys.com/product/7252993?site=sr:SEARCH:MAIN_RSLT_PG ) 2. DDR3 2GB 1333MHz Single Module Patriot PSD32G133381 ( http://www.frys.com/product/6413552?site=sr:SEARCH:MAIN_RSLT_PG ) So here is my problem, I put it all together, when I power it up for the first time the motherboard looks good lights up, the CPU fan is spinning, fan on graphics cards are spinning, however I cant get anything to display on my monitor. Monitor says no signal detected or something like that. Monitor works fine it isnt the monitor.... any ideas?

or leave it as is and remove power cords from psus, remove battery from mobo and set the reset jumper on the mobo for a few minutes.
