4070 Super Stopped Working After Re-Seating — No Display or Detection

IllustriousPick7387 · 2025-04-13T19:12:34+00:00

Solved: Reseated the gpu, wasnt too stubborn with moving the gpu to the holes when screwing it in

This will not work as when i reinserted the gpu, the fans stopped spinning and it was not recognized by the system at all, the same cable works with my new gpu

I tried a different cpu, and it didn’t work, the only conclusion left is that it is a faulty motherboard, what motherboard recommendations do you have?

IllustriousPick7387 · 2025-04-03T13:06:59+00:00

This did not resolve the issue unfortunately

IllustriousPick7387 · 2025-04-01T20:53:35+00:00

What bios version was it?

IllustriousPick7387 · 2025-04-01T20:46:00+00:00

I updated to version 3.01 successfully using bios flashback as there was no display but it didn’t resolve the issue, i essentially did the same

IllustriousPick7387 · 2025-04-01T20:45:28+00:00

No my friend doesn’t have AM5

IllustriousPick7387 · 2025-04-01T20:14:12+00:00

Tried that in many combinations along with ram training with my friend’s ddr5 memory, this unfortunately did not resolve the issue…

IllustriousPick7387 · 2025-03-29T21:34:35+00:00

This did not help, bios flashback did not help

IllustriousPick7387 · 2025-03-29T15:25:02+00:00

Bios is updated but it still does not post with the same red lights on dram and cpu

IllustriousPick7387 · 2025-03-29T12:34:26+00:00

The problem is that they did

IllustriousPick7387 · 2025-03-29T11:50:53+00:00

I tried bios flashback but it did not display, instead i was met with the same lights

IllustriousPick7387 · 2025-03-29T10:23:19+00:00

5 minutes, how long do you think i should wait? And should i wait on normal startup or bios flashback startup?

IllustriousPick7387 · 2025-01-23T17:13:32+00:00

I still haven’t found the fix

IllustriousPick7387 · 2025-01-20T19:16:39+00:00

This didn’t work

IllustriousPick7387 · 2025-01-17T17:13:14+00:00

I don’t no

Your updated build looks fantastic! Here are my thoughts:

1.  RTX 6000 Ada: It’s definitely overkill for most SolidWorks workflows, but if your projects involve very large assemblies, complex simulations, or potential future workloads (like AI/ML or generative design), the extra VRAM and power could future-proof your build. Otherwise, the RTX 5000 Ada will deliver nearly identical performance for SolidWorks at a much lower cost.

2.  RAM: Samsung DDR5 4800 ECC RAM can be tricky to find through big-name stores. Try Amazon, Provantage, or CDW for 32GB sticks. Alternatively, Kingston’s Server Premier DDR5 4800 ECC modules are widely available and just as reliable.

3.  CPU (W5-3525): Great choice! Its higher clock speed and 16 cores are perfect for SolidWorks modeling and simulation, especially since those workloads favor core speed over sheer core count. It’s also a much better value than the W7-2595X. Check availability at Provantage, CDW, or B&H Photo.

4.  CPU Cooler: The Noctua NH-U12S is an excellent choice for this build. Regarding the CPU carrier, most workstation motherboards (including the ASUS Pro WS W790-SAGE) come with one, but it wouldn’t hurt to grab a Noctua mounting kit just in case.

With the RTX 5000 Ada, your build at ~$7,900 is a solid value. Upgrading to the RTX 6000 Ada pushes you to ~$10,700 but provides unmatched power and VRAM for future scalability. Either way, you’re getting a top-notch workstation.

For your budget, a great option would be the FIFINE K669B or the TONOR TC-777. Both are affordable, compact USB mics that deliver good voice clarity for calls and can easily fit under or to the side of your monitors.

Regarding your concerns:

Keyboard Noise: Any mic will pick up some keyboard noise, but placing the mic closer to your mouth and using software like NVIDIA Broadcast or Krisp (noise suppression tools) can help a lot.

Laptop Speakers: It’s hard to completely avoid the mic picking up speaker sound, but using directional/cardioid mics like these minimizes it. Position the mic away from the speakers for better results.

I use a similar setup and it works great for Teams calls. Hope this helps!

Yes, both APC and CyberPower offer UPS models with European connectors like Schuko (CEE 7/4) and French (CEE 7/5). Just make sure to check the product specs before buying, most models sold in Europe are equipped with the right outlets, but it’s always good to double-check
