Windows 10: VGA light on but gpu is working

I have a GIGABYTE B650 elite AX motherboard and the VGA light is on but my RTX 4060 is working fine. Why is this happening?

No, as soon as I turned the PC on the light went from DRAM back to VGA. My GPU fans turn on, and my monitors turn “on”, but no signal on display.

Hi

Welcome to Microsoft community.

The VGA light on your motherboard is part of the motherboard's POST (Power-On Self-Test) system. If the light remains on after booting, it generally indicates that there is a problem with the graphics card or its connection to the motherboard.

However, as you mentioned that your GPU works fine once booted and you have no issues while gaming, this could indicate a few possible scenarios:

1. Loose Connection: Even if it seems unlikely because you've changed several components already, double-check to ensure your GPU is seated properly in its PCIe slot and power cables are securely connected.
   
2. BIOS/UEFI Settings: Sometimes, certain settings in BIOS/UEFI can cause such issues. Ensure your BIOS/UEFI is set to use PCIe graphics first (not integrated graphics). Also, consider updating your BIOS/UEFI if an update is available from NZXT for your specific model.
   
   Disclaimer: Microsoft provides no assurances and/or warranties, implied or otherwise, and is not responsible for the information you receive from the third-party linked sites or any support related to technology.
   
   If you are going to modify BIOS Settings, please back up all your personal files first to ensure you do not lose data.
   
3. GPU Firmware or Driver Issue: Check if there are any updates available for your GPU's firmware or drivers from NVIDIA's website.
   
4. Power Supply Issue: While you've already changed PSU, it's still possible that the power supply isn't able to provide enough power during startup but manages fine later on when demand isn't peaking as high.
   
5. Motherboard Issue: Despite changing motherboards already too, it could be an issue with how this particular model of motherboard interacts with other hardware during bootup process.
   
6. Monitor or Cable Issue: It could be related to monitor detection during startup phase – perhaps due to cable issue or monitor itself.
   

Please let me know if you need any further assistance. Thank you.
