I'd look better if I had room to show it off

I'd love to, but there doesn't seem to be a lot of interest. I don't want to be the only one posting there. We get a few people posting and that would be cool.



That sucks bug time. And I hate to say it but given the times we're in that could be long RMA process - unless you're still within the return/replacement window through store you bought the board from.

I am fortunately as it was only built last November.

I assume you mean the board is still under warranty. What I meant was if it was recently (within 14/30 days) purchased from a store you could return it for another... thus avoiding the RMA route. Most places give you at least a 14-day return policy.

ah, sadly it isn't.

What's the problem?

The gpu connectors seem to have died. I tested the graphics card that was in the pc on my second pc and it worked. Tested the 1070 that was from old pc in main and it wouldnt show.

You mean the PCIE connector? Have you tried all PCIE X16 slots? Do you still get a Display Port connection from the GPU?

I tried the top x16 and the middle x8, the bottom one is blocked by the usb 3 cable sticking out (nice design choice).

Regardless of what port it is, if they're not working the board needs to be replaced.

And how many PCIE X16 slots do you think that board has
