Okay so I built my computer today....
DFI Lanparty UT SLI-DR Expert
AMD Opteron 165
G.Skill DDR600 1gb (512mb x 2)
FSP 500Watt PSU
WD Hard Drive (IDE)
Thermaltake Big Typhoon
eVGA 6800gs (I "think" I repaired it)
The problem is that when I turn the computer on, everything starts running, except the monitor doesn't turn on (no image displayed). This could either be the video card or I seriously hope not the CPU. If everything is on and seems to be working is it possible for my Expert to have killed my CPU? If it is the video card then it is no big deal since I am getting a replacement anyways.
Maybe it is the ram? I have the ram in slots 2 and 4, and I have the Video Card in PCIE slot 1 (the one right next to the CPU). Hopefully this is just a matter of changing the positions of the ram and/or the video card! Any help is appreciated!
