Hello, i was wondering if someone could give me suggestions with this. I built pc in the s4m-c. Its been working fine but all of a sudden today after booting the monitor wont display anything, all lights and fans are running. I reseated everything. The motherboard indicator light says something is wrong with the vga card.

My best guess is that I should 1) replace the pcie riser ribbon. (the ribbon I got with the case from a seller was super torn up. the shielding is gone, the ribbon itself has been folded numerous times) or 2) test/RMA the GPU in another build, bad news i dont have another build to use

Pc Specs
CPU: Ryzen 2600
Mobo Rog Strix 450 I
Memory: G Skill Trident Z 16 gb 3200 mhz
GPU: GTX 1660ti
PSU: HDPlex 400 DCATX and Dell 330W Brick

Any suggestions would be appreciated

I'd suggest that you test the rig with the GPU sitting directly into the PCIe slot, without the riser.
