Hello,

I recently (about a week ago) made a custom PC with all the bits and pieces bought from overclockers. I managed to build the PC and was enjoying some gaming, I disappeared for the weekend and came back on a Sunday night and booted up my PC, Unfortunalty, there was no graphics coming from the graphics card, which i thought was strange since I hadn't changed any setting.

I am however able to get graphics from the motherboard. I attempted to check to see if there was some sort of driver error but I couldnt see anything in device manager to update. I then looked at the BIOS setting to see if I could find anything in there but I my BIOS is showing that there is nothing even plugged in to the PCIe slot. I checked to see if there was any kind of setting that may have reverted, no luck. I swapped the graphics card into another PCIe slot, and still nothing came up. I've tried resetting the CMOS and re seating the RAM.

The only Thing that I guess is a positive sign is that when I turn the PC on the graphics card fan spins for about 3-4 seconds then stops.

Here is my setup

KFA2 GeForce GTX 670 2048MB GDDR5 PCI-Express Graphics Card
Asus Z77 MAximus V Gene
I5 3750K 3.4Ghz
TeamGroupe Eleite 16GB 1600Mhz
Alpenfohn K2 Mount doom cooler
Seagate Barracuda 2TB 7200RPM SATA 6Gb/s 64MB Cache - OEM
Crucial V4 64GB 2.5" SATA-II Solid State Hard Drive
Corsair 2013 Edition Gamer Series GS 600W '80 Plus Bronze' Power Supply

Sorry if I'm not very clear English isn't one of my strengths.
 
The worst thing is, that I don't have anyway of testing it in another machine before i try sending it back =(

RMA??

RMA is return to OcUK :) (Return Merchandise Authorization)

It was all fine and then wasn't and as the fan isn't spinning (or not for long), it does sound like it has died.

Fill in the RMA section and explain your problem.
