    I built my new rig today:

    Gigabyte P35-DQ6
    Q6600
    Tuniq tower
    4 gig of G.Skill PQ Ram
    Sapphire HD2900XT.
    2 Samsung 500J
    Antec 900
    Hiper 670W PSU

    The problem I have is that when I start it up, there's no output to the monitor, nothing displays on my tft. Any ideas? I've disconnected everything bar the video card and 2 gigs of ram, and still no joy. Any ideas?

    Have you overlooked any of the power connections on the motherboard or GFX card? Is this a known good monitor?

    The pc starts up and everything runs? but you get nothing on the monitor?

    If so look at my thread no video on startup and build the computer outside the case on a box, I had the same problem for days and it turned out to be a standoff was shorting it..

    Did you not even read the manual. Or have any common sense. If there are two ports for power dont you think you should connect them both...
