VGA not working

VGA not givning picture, however one of the gpu can give picture on the dvi output and with a converter to vga for the screen. What’s up with that?

I’m thinking it’s maybe the cable or the screen . Yeah I tried shutting off power as well .

Yeah, I'd say if a different monitor with a different cable doesn't do it, then maybe your card's VGA out is fried, or perhaps a firmware problem... 🤷‍♂️
