Posting this on all threads:

Fixed: this was my first ever build and after reseating my gpu, I saw some less than intelligent wiring (6+2 pin coming out of my card, daisy chained to a 6 pin that then went into the VGA port on my power supply). I cringed and pulled those wires and replaced it with a PCIE cable from my wife's new build (the reason I removed my 2nd 1080 in the first place). That cable only went into a CPU slot on the power supply but didn't think much of it. Turns out using cables that are not associated with your specific PSU is a nono. Everything works fine and I am dumb for several reasons but at least I learned with (seemingly) no catastrophic consequences.

Thank yall for your help and consideration and sorry I wasted your time.

I like how long island is red but not the rest of NY.

Updating drivers was suggested by a friend to do after I started up but now I don't have any video output so I guess I need to figure something else out . I feel dumb

Tried that, got the monitor to wake up but still didn't display anything. Then I replaced the power cable to the card and now the whole pc isn't turning on so looks like I get to figure that out tomorrow. I'll check if I have a jumper on my board too and get back to you. Thanks for the help though

Would that erase all my data?

Note: I'm sorta dumb with computers but smart enough to have built 3 that haven't exploded yet (until now)

Repeating means pop it out and back in right?

So I've had my SLI disabled for a few years now because no games still support it, so I know I can run these games on a single card.

I've already done the hard PS switch reset.

Everything lights up in the case itself but no video output comes out.

As he is a known germaphobe, might this steer him away from the clown's hamberders as his go to meal?

I stopped watching after S2 mostly because I didn't have access but I'm glad I did because it's solidified in my mind as an amazing show and hasn't been ruined yet. I will continue to believe that. Maybe years down the road I'll watch it with my future crotch goblin
