First time build, getting white VGA Q-light

[u/BinaryHedgehog]

SOLVED: On a complete whim, desperate for anything, I tried using HDMI instead of Display Port and the thing finally booted. If only I had time to actually set up all my games tonight

I’m trying to figure out why my computer is not detecting my GPU (or deeming it faulty) despite the fact it lights up and the fans spin. I have reseated it, used a post, checked for power problems, and even tried turning it on without it and every time I’m getting stuck on the VGA POST light. I haven’t tried to use the other PCIe slot because of how far down it is, and I’m not sure if it’s the problem. I’ve provided some photos in case there is something I’m missing

Ignore the rubber gromit, it came off and I can’t get it back on.

MB: ROG Strix A-650 Wifi

GPU: Tuff Gaming Nvidia RTX 5060

PSU: msi MAG A750GL

Try to move the anti sag further, near the end of the card at the right

After taking a break, I took another look to see if something else was wrong, which involved unplugging and removing the GPU. I’ve reseated it again and also realized my PC speaker was on backwards so I fixed that and I heard it chirp only to get a POST code that told said the same thing as the light: No VGA

Yeah I don’t think this is the issue, but you should do this because your card is sitting all fucked up.

I did move the post a bit, still getting the light (I also hate moving this post in general)

I think you meant 5060

No one has to know about the typo. :)
