Finally install my 1080ti.... no fans or display

[mikelkite]

So I built myself a little gaming PC, finally got round to unboxing my 1080ti and installing.

No display, fans not spinning, but the LED's light up.

Nothing in device manager at all, looks like it might be dead.

Not worked in 2 different motherboards, different slots etc.

Time to RMA it? I've done all the usual checks (been building for 15+ years) - have my own mining rig, PC for 3d rendering and playing at 4k, HTPC etc so I know what to usually look for.

Gigabyte GeForce GTX 1080 Ti Gaming OC 11G - bought from here, 1st GFX card I've had DOA in my life if this is the case!

How many Watts is your PSU? Have you definitely got the power plug in fully?

 

[Wrinkly]

The fans won't spin until the card heats up, ~60C. Have you tried different display ports on the card?

Is the motherboard BIOS up to date?

Have you tried it in a really old motherboard?

BTW my first GPU from OCUK - a Nvidia Maxwell Titan X - failed almost immediately.

power supply check and motherboard bios update.then rma.

Hopefully stupid questions, but just to be sure:

Have you tried a different video cable?
Have you checked that the monitor is set to that input?

 

[mikelkite]

Yeah, tried everything.

I get the Geforce LED lights, but nothing in windows to show its being recognised.

MSI, Device manager etc nothing, changed the power and slot its in.

Do I RMA it to Gigabyte or contact OCUK, its a month old or so.

How are you checking device manager under windows if there's no display?

Are you RDPing into the machine?

You have plugged the 8 pin power connectors into the board haven't you?
