I just built a new PC using an RX9060XT 16GB Mercury OC White graphics card, an R5 7600 CPU, 32GB of 6000MT/s RAM, and a B840M Eagle Wifi6 motherboard. After finishing the build, I plugged the HDMI into the GPU and powered it on, but I'm getting no display. The GPU fans are spinning, and the lights are on, but I can't even get into the BIOS. Interestingly, when I remove the GPU and try booting with just the CPU using its integrated graphics, it boots into the BIOS without any problem. I'm worried that my GPU might be defective, especially since I've tried troubleshooting it countless times and invested over a thousand euros in this setup. Any advice would be a big help!

Have you tried making sure your GPU is selected as the primary output in the BIOS? Sometimes, even with a dedicated GPU, the onboard graphics can stay active. You might want to double-check that to ensure your GPU isn't being overridden.
You could try manually setting your PCIe slot in the BIOS from 'Auto' to Gen 4. That sometimes helps with recognition issues, especially after a fresh build.
I’ll give that a shot! I've already reinstalled the drivers a few times, so I’m hoping this will help.
Yeah, and if you’re using a graphics card, make sure the onboard graphics are disabled in the BIOS too. That could prevent proper output from the GPU.
I have them set to auto, and disabling them didn’t help. This build is really testing my patience!
It's crucial to ensure your GPU is seated properly. I had a similar issue once, and it turned out my card wasn't fully clipped in. You might want to double-check the connection, even if it clicks.

I was originally set to auto, but when I disabled the onboard graphics, it still didn't work. I really hope the GPU isn’t faulty.
