To begin, here is my build:
Here are full specs:
Motherboard: GA-Z77X-UP5-TH
Processor: Intel i7 3770 Ivy Bridge
GPU: nVidia GeForce GTX 660 3 GB (currently removed)
Boot Drive: Samsung 840 PRO (dual boot 10.8.4 and Windows 7)
The system works flawlessly but only if I am running onboard Graphics and the monitor is connected to the DVI output of the motherboard. (Note: The HDMI port does not send a signal for whatever reason)
The issue is I have been trying on and off for 2 years now to install the GTX 660 graphics card with no luck. Similar to the MB HDMI port, the monitor states that there is "No Signal" even before I get to the Chimera boot screen. From looking through the forum responses to other Graphics cards, I have tried the following:
Having drivers installed
To the best of my knowledge, it appears the only way to get a signal from my computer is the DVI port on the motherboard. Is there a way to fix this? Or am I missing a potentially easier solution. I have read a lot of issues with this GPU but also a lot of excellent results. I may elect to buy the GTX 760 that is the recommended build for this month, but I dont want to run into issues with that as well. Any advice is greatly appreciated.
