1155 i3 2120 3.3 ghz
16 gb ddr 3 1600mhz
500w psu
when i plug my gtx 1050 ti in i get no signal (i only have 1 pcie slot and no the crad is fine i have had it tested twice and no it cant be the mobo because its brand new and my old board had the same issue)

I would set it to the correct gen for the card just in case auto seems to be defaulting to a lower gen.

i highly doubt a bios update was made in nov 2019 for a 9 year old mobo
because that link isnt the mobo i have becuase my pcie slot is x16 no x8 and i know its was made lasy year because the bios states it and when i google what the bios version it even says it

blahhh redundancies and irrelevancies --- removed in edit.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Potential Problem #2 (This is probably your problem.)

Since i3's have a APU
its good to go into the BIOS and make sure your display is set to discrete graphics instead of integraded.
It will usually read as IGD, if so change it to Discrete.


Generally this is set to IGD on CPU's with integrated graphics like the I3 2120.
The reason behind this is its a low-cost CPU making it easy to build a work horse without requiring a large investment just to display.

Most motherboard when they detect a APU (a cpu with a graphics core)
Automatically default to the APU for display ignoring the discrete card.
You have to manually change this when you start your PC. in the Bios settings.

From IGD to - > Discrete

This will only happen on APU's
It's happened to me when I used Ryzen 3, and AMD A Series back in the day.
Now I use CPU's without graphics cores so I haven't run into this issue again.


-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Potential Problem #3
If you have any older GFX card you can test the PCI slot to make sure it has not become damaged.

if the card is defective it can send surges into the pci-e slot or even pull more power than needed burning the gold connections. in the slot its self.


-------------------------------------------
A damaged GFX should lead to artifacts and blue screens of death. unless the HDMI port became damaged and unsoldered it should be rare to have no display if the card is still powering up with PC power.


Anyways hope you've solved your problem.

P.S. a better CPU will not fix your issue. You issue is in no way related to other pieces of hardware aside from
Bios settings for display since the I3 has a integrated graphics core.
Or failure in the PCI-e slot. (least likely) since u said this has happened twice.

Seeing how your PC boots up without the card and displays fine, this is most likely your issue.
Go into Bios. find the display or graphic option what ever its named.

And switch it from IGD to Discrete.
IGD = Integraded graphics device.

its a 1155 h61 jingsha
That only has 1 x PCI Express x8
EDIT: https://www.newegg.com/jingsha-micro-atx-h61matx/p/1JW-00D3-00004

That GPU needs a PCIe 3.0 x16 so it won't work in the board. You either need different GPU or a newer motherboard
It does have a x16-Slot https://de.aliexpress.com/i/33010013433.html

Yes I know. OP already pointed out there board is slightly different to the one I found after searching based on the info given at the time.
i dont mean to mess you up by me being noob but i have 3 vid cards now a 1050ti would be next but damn double backplate ima get a amd raedon rx550 instead (its like a little bigger than a 1650) i just put in my 3rd one its junky but a x1 slot (short) my other 2 are on pciex16 one card is 2.0 other is 3.0 all 3 work fine now but yesterday when i just put in my 3rd small one my screen wqas black on first boot so i held power button and turned it off then hit power button again and it came up rather normal there might have been another of the same reboot but it works fine now it just took a while idk i went from 12mb/s dl to 26mb/s eh idk id just reccomend you restart a few times btw my 4 slots in order of bought cards were 2 pciex16 i guess 3.0 for smaller cards no dual backplate and a pciex1not4 short then theres a pcie1j20 left ima put in a rx550 which is more like urs but anyway try restarting a few times also if black hold power button till off and turn back on a few times

this is your manufacturer + board right ?
https://www.szmzit.com/extreme-gaming-intel-h61-motherboard-with-lga-1155-socket_p27.html#parentHorizontalTab022
This doesn't say what version pci express, just says pci x16 express

Intel states the H61 chipset supports up to 2.0. <--- Notice "up To"
I can assure you, you need to replace your motherboard, here is a compatible GPU with PCI x16 1.0

DO NOT BUY THIS, UR INTEGRATED GFX IN THE i3 IS PROBABLY JUST AS GOOD LOL
https://www.pcliquidations.com/p101285-nvidia-geforce-gt-610?r160164167166161&msclkid=faa591cf4fa51ee64aefcf7db97958ff&utm_source=bing&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=CPCS_PCLiq-Shopping&utm_term=4581046482661109&utm_content=Products

This H61 chipset came out 2011 and has been discontinued.
Also the compatible motherboards for the 1050 TI card don't even mention this brand. That's how janky PCing in china is.
The motherboard clearly states V1.0 near the PCI x16 slot.
For example, intel never offered a H61 chipset that had VGA/HDMI & 4 USB ports on the board, it should be 6 with the HDMI VGA combo.
This is a custom Chinese soldered board. The chipset design is nearly 10 years old! But the clone is modern Chinese garbage.

You can say "I just bought it" But that means you have no idea what you are talking about, this chipset was manufactured by intel in 2011, and china is selling discontinued SALVAGED boards, like this one which has most likely been repaired. Or is a "clone" there attempt of reverse engineering and selling a much weaker product at the same price...

We call it counterfeiting. Fake Nikes just aren't the same as the real ones you know?

Yeah not the answer you wanted, oh well.
Next time buy anything from MSI, EVGA, ASROCK, ASUS......... Unfortunately the DDR3 Ram That should've told you the board is well over 5 years old....




Heres a Few others things you can Try!

Now, it could be bios related. You have the AMI bios.
American Megatrendz, Inc. Which I feel is super old lol l most companies now have their own custom version of AMI.

So first, reset your bios to defaults and restart.
Or if your bios don't have an easy option like that.
Unplug the PC, and remove the CMOS battery for 1-3 minutes to reset your motherboard.


If your computer is not compatible with the GPU it may automatically switch to IGD when the GPU is plugged in.
From the bios site, you can download an MB identifier
https://ami.com/en/download-license-agreement/?DownloadFile=Motherboard_ID_Tool.zip

and then see if u can update it.

Hey look at this unbranded clone from China, on Newegg, look familiar? https://www.newegg.com/p/3C6-00CH-03880?Item=9SIAJX6ASM6596&Description=H61&cm_re=H61-_-9SIAJX6ASM6596-_-Product

Lol I cant even recommend you replace the H61 because a real one is in the $150's because its old and anyone who actually needs it will pay that price.


Heres my recommendation for you.
Sorry but you PC is done, you messed up when you bought an 10 year old board thinking it was new.

If you want to do Intel. which i do not recommend as they are now behind AMD in performance and technology.

You can re-use your HDD's, PSU, GFX Card, Fans, CD Drives, Cases, well everything you only need to replace the bare bones.

9th Gen i3, instead of your second-generation i3..... Socket is 1151
You will need to replace the motherboard anyways might as well upgrade.
75$
https://www.newegg.com/intel-core-i3-9th-gen-core-i3-9100f/p/N82E16819118072?Item=N82E16819118072&Description=i3%201151&cm_re=i3_1151-_-19-118-072-_-Product&quicklink=true

MSI LGA 1151 Motherboard supports DDR4 $65
https://www.newegg.com/msi-h310m-pro-vdh-plus/p/N82E16813144231

2x 8GB DDR4 Memory. $70
https://www.newegg.com/oloy-16gb-288-pin-ddr4-sdram/p/N82E16820821275?Item=N82E16820821275&Description=ram&cm_re=ram-_-20-821-275-_-Product

So you need to spend $210 roughly to upgrade your PC to last you the next 5 years.
And so you can proudly say "My ♥♥♥♥ isn't a Chinese potato"



yours is currently past its expiration date regardless of when you assembled it.



p.s. the reason your bios shows made in November is that the manufacturer made tweaks when they assembled the board because it's not actually an intel official chipset layout its a reverse-engineered one, they tweaked the bios so it would work.... kinda...

dude thank for the info but how come my amd radeon hd 7800 that is pcie 3.0 work in my old foxconn mobo that had a much much older bios but the 1050 ti doesnt

How do you even know that gtx 1050 isn't dead?

Have you had it tested in a working PC with the gpu actually working?

It could be a dead gpu.

because the 7800 was released not long after your motherboard chipset and was designed to be compatible with boards of that era..
