New built PC stopped output to displays after 1 week of working perfectly
I built my new computer last week and everything was working well and running smoothly until I cam back from work yesterday. I had put the computer to sleep before I left and when I came home I attempted to wake the PC but the monitors didn't display anything. I cycled them a few times but decided the issue was likely them not getting signal so I restarted my PC. It took an abnormally long amount of time to turn back on, but eventually it came back on, but would only send a signal to one of the two monitors I have setup. I tried switching the monitors to different outputs on the GPU, but only the first DisplayPort output was sending any signal. I then loaded the computer to BIOS and verified that all of the hardware was recognized which it was. I restarted again and while running the PC on the single monitor and trying to figure out what was going on, I noticed that it was working really slowly on all tasks. Scrolling the browser was really choppy and laggy. Opening Steam took several minutes. I opened up 3DMark to see if it could help me diagnose the issue, but after 10+ minutes of it trying to start and failing I shut down the tool and went to restart the system again and see if things "magically" improved.
That was the last time I got any output from the GPU/PC. I tried taking the GPU out of it's slot and re-seating it. I tried removing the Ram sticks and re-seating those as well. I checked every cable and plug. I tried multiple monitors and every DisplayPort output from the GPU, but I'm still not getting any output.
Anybody have and ideas? Any other steps I should take to isolate the issue?
