New built pc no display and 1 short beep

[QuietGhost]

So when i turn it on, the cpu fan and casing fan seems to be working. But there's no display. I tried switching the monitor, changing the ram slot, but it still doesn't work.

Mobo: Gigabyte 78lmt-usb3
ram: OCPC 8 gb DDR3
CPU: AMD FX-6300
GPU: Zotac geforce gtx 950
PSU: Zumax zu-400 400W
HDD: Seagate Baracuda 500gb
Display: LG 20" LED

1 short with award bios sounds more like basic POST beep - normal.

Plugged into wrong video-out? Attached power cable to GPU?

Well, did you use the mainboard or GPU ones? No matter which, try the other.

okay i tried both of them and it still says no signal

You sure the display uses the proper input?
Try the other way: remove the Ram, see if it that changes the beep code (it should).

Alrighty, GPU seems to be the cause then.

Steps you could do:
- remove GPU, plug display into mainboard video-out, see if that works - does work? Everything besides your GPU is probably okay.
- now make you sure you really plugged the GPU into the right slot, and especially that it fit's properly. Also check 6pin power cable.

IT WORKS :D
But when i put the GPU back it doesn't work again. I tried switching the 6 pin power cable, and reinserting it. Do you think the models don't match?

Well, either the GPU is DOA (dead on arrival = broken), or more likely:
you didn't plug it in properly.

Make sure the GPU properly locks into the slot - there's a little nose at the end of the slot. Same goes for the 6pin power cable on top of the card.

is it too late to return the cpu/mobo and power supply?

fx is poor for newer games
that mobo is even poorer for fx
its a 760/710 chipset designed for aii/pii, and modded to run fx at nerfed specs

the psu is trash, get something with working protections that will not kill the rest of the components

Should the fan on the GPU spins when the pc turns on?

Many of the GTX 900 series cards (especially those with aftermarket coolers) tend to keep the fan off until the GPU hits a certain temperature (typically 60C or around there).

Could it be my psu doesn't have enough watt? But the cpu fan and the led is on so i'm kinda confused here?

GPU fan should spin up for self test.

Yes the 6 pin is plugged in. And i forgot to tell you guys that my psu is newly made so you won't find it in the internet. Mine looks black with gold fonts and it's 80+ bronze.
