Hey everyone! I just completed my new PC build, but I'm running into a problem. While everything powers on—like the USB devices and fans—my monitor isn't getting any signal when I connect it to the GPU. I've confirmed that the monitor and cable are working since they function perfectly with another computer. Additionally, there's a red light on the motherboard that suggests the CPU is failing POST. I'd really appreciate any help or suggestions to troubleshoot this issue. Here's the build I used: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/Mpw9Dj

First off, try skipping the GPU for a moment. See if you can get a signal by connecting your monitor to the iGPU on the motherboard instead. That might help isolate if it’s a GPU issue.
Unfortunately, that didn’t work either for me. Looks like I might have a CPU issue instead.
Yeah, a failing POST usually points to the CPU. You might want to reseat it or check the power connections.
