Be more specific. which heatsink did you install? Does the monitor give a no signal message?

Wait, did you install a video card or cpu heatsink? Also, try plugging the monitor into another port, sometimes they are fussy.

Also: did you plug in the pci-e 6 pin cable to the gpu?
 
ok

gpu i tried both of my dvi ports and nothing i had gpu working b4 cpu heatsink i installed but wasnt trying to mess with anything to disrupt

If you have onboard video have you tried testing with that?

Have you tried a different video card if you have one?

Different cable, different monitor?
 
tried two different monitors tried vga port on monitors no display dont have extra pci e 16 card no onboard video on this build
 
ok i unconnected different power cords like sata power and stuff to see if that was the case and tried to push on the ones in my hard drive i think those are fine but i removed the cpu heatsink and re installed it to make sure the cpu is placed right so also i reset bios in the inside of my board i tried taking the cmos battery out for good 5 minutes putting it back in and still nothing im not happy i really dont think my video card is to blame tho reason why i say that is because it was working fine yesterday b4 i even got this new heatsink and installed it btw i reconnedting the 8 pin power connector to motherboard i pressed on the 20/24 pin power connecter to motherboard it was in that so good i could move it so far i just dont know what the problem is im really about to give up at this
 
question bout video card

ok umm i havent tried my second pci express 16x slot imma try that to make its not motherboard
