Good day!

Important details here: it's been a hot minute since I did a PC build. (20 years.. I had to raise some kids.) so I am a little behind. Please be patient with me.

The intention of the build is to be a replacement Plex Server. Here's the specs:

Asus TUF x570 Pro with WiFi NVIDIA QUADRO M2000 AMD Ryzen 7 5800x

Here's the issue I'm facing: completed the hardware build and went to test. The Q-LED's show a BOOT and VGA error. BOOT makes sense. I haven't even formatted the NVME drives yet.

The VGA one though has me concerned. The AMD processor doesn't have integrated graphics so a GPU is necessary. The M2000 is seated correct and I even made sure to clean it before reseating it. Still nothing. No picture no BIOS screen.

My suspicion is I need a more directly compatable GPU with the motherboard so I can update the BIOS and maybe then it will work.

I'm sure someone's going to have a solution so obvious I'll be embarrassed but I'll deal with it. Thank you for any assistance.

Update. I moved the new GPU to my old machine and it booted up immediately. So we can remove GPU hardware broken as a possibility.

I kept the new version in the old machine and tried the old version in my new pc. Now the VGA Q-LED is off but still no picture on new pc. Old pc is fine.

Some details: I’m directly connected to the monitor from the GPU. NO KVM or any such nonsense in between. When I power on the screen turns on for a moment then turns off after a few seconds and after the last of the boot process completes where the Q-LED light is only lit for BOOT.
