Motherboards with Intel processors / Re: B760 aorus elite no graphics output

Pull the power plug out. Hold down the power button for 15 or 20 sec. That drain all the power out the PSU. Pull out the battery? Let sit for about hour. Then put it back in and see what happens.

If that doesn't work. What bios is on the board? You could try to do bios update using the quick flash button on the MB. That might bring it back to life.

Motherboards with Intel processors / B760 aorus elite no graphics output

« Last post by Blast3r on August 29, 2025, 04:26:23 pm »

Hi this is doing my head in, I enable safe boot in the bios and when it rebooted it has no graphics output, I have a AMD 7900XT with an intel 13600kf processor and it was work faultless for 2 years, I tried reset bios etc but it won't clear the issue so did all the usual unseated everything and back in, tried a different gpu in and nothing I'm afraid I've bricked it!!!! I can't even use the MB hdmi as my processor has no graphics built in....any help is appreciated as the gigabyte tech help are not getting back to me, has anyone had this before?? Thanks in advance

Your board has what  3 slots that support 5.0, 4.0 & 3.0. The 5.0 must not like that card. The thing is you really have to look at everything today.

The other thing is how many M.2 drives are you running. Where are they installed. By board the 5.0 slots looks like it runs through the CPU. The 1st M.2 slot looks like it runs through the CPU too.

The other slots & M.2's run through the chip-set. Could that be part of the problem.

The funny part about this F4 is a real bios. The F4c is a beta bios. Unless they have change the rules on bios. That is what it use to be F4 was a real and F4c was a beta bios.

I know,confused me too but that's how gigabyte do it.
Assumption here is that if there's a next bios it will be 5a.

4c is indeed a beta and 4 is final

Motherboards with AMD processors / Re: Does the X670 GAMING X AX V2 (rev. 1.0) have D.P. Alt Mode?

« Last post by dmdilks on May 01, 2025, 10:44:09 pm »

Sorry but your board doesn't support it. Look at pages 12 & 18. There no support for any extra ports to support video other then the HDMI port. You have to have a USB4® USB Type-C® port (Display-Port). If you look at the other thread x870i he has that port to support it. Plus he was having problem getting it work too.

Motherboards with AMD processors / Does the X670 GAMING X AX V2 (rev. 1.0) have D.P. Alt Mode?

« Last post by jaustin175 on May 01, 2025, 01:42:16 pm »

If so, how do I enable it?
Some sources say yes, the USB-C output on this MB does have D.P. Alt Mode

I am trying to run a second monitor off the USB-C.

I have an experimental configuration with:
X670 GAMING X AX V2 (rev. 1.0) - HDMI used for monitor 1, BIOS: F32

Ryzen 7 8700G APU

G.SKILL Ripjaws S5 Series (Intel XMP 3.0) DDR5 RAM 96GB (2x48GB) 6800MT/s CL34-46-46-108 1.35V Desktop Computer Memory UDIMM - Matte Black (F5-6800J3446F48GX2-RS5K)

SAMSUNG 990 PRO Series - 2TB PCIe Gen4. X4 NVMe 2.0c - M.2 Internal SSD (MZ-V9P2T0B/AM)

Overall runs very fast. I have used some up to date adapter cables from the rear USB-C to the HDMI monitors. So far no luck running a second monitor. The monitor does not have display port or USB-C. I have tried adapter cables:
1 USB-C to HDMI cable - supposed to be DP Alt Mode capable.

2 USB-C to HDMI adapter - supposed to be DP Alt Mode capable. Then latest HDMI version cable to monitor.

3 USB-C to Display Port adapter > Display Port to HDMI adapter. Then latest HDMI version cable to monitor.

I cannot seem to find a setting in BIOS that pertains to this. I would appreciate some guidance.

Thank you.

By any chance have you try the card in the 3.0 slot at the bottom? One other thing you could try is boot legacy vs UEFi. I try to look at the book but it doesn't. I think if you change CSM too it might help.

Hi dmdilks

Thanks again for your input on this. I'm a bit late coming back to you. I never answered your question about trying the card in a different PCIe slot (I did try all the other tweaks you suggested).  In the meantime, I've been talking to Nvidia customer support on the issue and have gone round and round with the standard "download the latest drivers", "perform a clean install" "try the card in another machine" steps.  I have now tried the card on 3 different motherboards installing a fresh copy of Windows each time and the result is always the same: as soon as Windows automatically downloads and installs the latest NVIDIA 3840 x 2160 driver OR if the driver is installed manually in SAFE MODE, the card will behave normally UNTIL the PC is rebooted and then it's back to freezing at the loading circle.

Only yesterday, and I'm sorry I didn't act on your suggestion sooner, I decided to try the card in a PCIe x 4 slot on my spare motherboard and the PC booted fine.  I have no idea how far this gets me in establishing whether this is a hardware issue (as I'm tempted to conclude) but at least I did as you suggested.   

Unfortunately, there's not enough room to install the card in one of the PCIe x 4 slots in the PC it's intended for so it looks like I will have to replace it.

Thanks again.

Thanks for the input. I was desperately hoping that this issue might turn out to be some setting like that which I'd overlooked (a frequent occurrence with me) so I tried

CSM                       Enable/Disable 
Internal Graphics     Enable/Disable
Other PCIe Devices  UEFI/Legacy

Strangely, it booted correctly once after changing the CSM setting. Thereafter, it was back to the same behavior and other than a few BSODs and 5-bleep sequences nothing changed.  I simply couldn't get it to boot a second time. Weird.

I'm reluctant to replace the card as yet, since firstly, I haven't established for sure that it's faulty and secondly, the recent obscene increases in price of similar cards.

Thanks again.
