I'm building my first PC and I've hit a snag. I've installed a Gigabyte Wind Force SFF GeForce RTX 5070 video card, connected it to my PSU, and mounted it on my ASRock B650M Pro RS Motherboard. When I power it on, all the fans spin, but there's no signal to my monitor whether I use DisplayPort or HDMI. I've even tested my monitor with the integrated graphics but that didn't work either. Any advice on how to troubleshoot this?

Have you tried removing the GPU and hooking up the monitor directly to the motherboard? If your CPU supports integrated graphics, that could help diagnose if the problem is with the GPU or elsewhere.
It sounds like a common issue! First, can you share your parts list? It might help us spot something that could be causing the problem. Also, double-check that all the connections are secure and that the RAM is seated properly.
Make sure your RAM is installed in the right slots as per your motherboard manual. Try booting with just one stick and see if that changes anything. Also, ensure that the 16+4 power connector and CPU power connector are tight. It's easy to overlook the PSU switch too; make sure it's on the correct voltage setting!
Classic issue! Make sure your GPU and RAM are properly seated. A CMOS reset can sometimes help too! Just remove the battery for a minute and put it back. If all else fails, a breadboard setup can help isolate components to identify the fault.
