    Hello,
    I have build pc through hardwareversand. Got it assembled in place but without Windows. 7 days later it reached my place but after I switched it on nothing comes on my monitor. It is working as I tested it on my old laptop (R.I.P).
    PC specs are:
    Intel core i5-4670
    Asrock H87 performance
    8GB-kit G.Skill PC3-10667U CL9
    Gigabyte Radeon R9 270X
    Kingston SSD V300 120GB

    Would apprecciate any advice. Or maybe you know some decent place in Dublin where Icould have it checked.
    Thanks in advance

    Are you plugging the monitor into the graphics card or the video card?

    How long have you waited after powering it on?

    is there multiple ways you can connect the monitor? There's possibly on port built into the motherboard (beside usb ports etc) and then others from the radeon card (by the expansion slots), try each of them.

    well you probably will have to take out your video card for that to work.

    as you cant access your bios to disable the video card

    unless you got some kind of adaptor dvi to vga (you might of got 1 in the box)

    Not until you get a proper connection from your video card to your monitor ,, check your box for a dvi-vga or hdmi-vga

    you are not seen any thing on you screen because your onboard video is disabled in the bios and the video card is enabled

    anything like that in your box
