Question regarding "Titan 8700i Pulse"

kikodgreat · 1 Sep 2012 at 22:33

Hello everyone
I got my new rig delivered to me 2 days ago(rig is on title) but its only now that i was setting up. My problem is when i turn on the machine it seems that my monitor is not communicating with it as it's coming up with a message saying NO INPUT,NO SIGNAL. I thought my old monitor is kaputs so i bought a new monitor. With the new monitor plug in it's still coming up with the same message "NO SIGNAL". The rig itself powers up fans/dvd etc all working but no input on the monitor.System support is closed for the weekend so i thought i write something here hoping someone in the community will help me.
My rig is a titan 8700i pulse changed the case to CM storm trooper.

Many thanks in advance and apologies for being a noobie

Hello and welcome to the forum

It sounds like the Overclock has thrown a wobbler, you will need to reset the CMOS by removing the battery (mains disconnected) or move the clear CMOS jumper, the manual will show the position of the jumper.

Hopefully this will get you booted and pop back into to the BIOS and load the saved Overclocked Profile.

i took the battery out as this seems the easiest for me, 20 minutes later i reinserted it back and powered the machine but still no monitor activity :mad:

ill take out the battery again overnight and try it tommorow.

Are you plugging the monitor straight into the motherboard or are you connecting it to the graphics card?

You will want it to be plugged into the graphics card which is located further down and the ports will be horizontal.

i have plugged in straight to the Motherboard, i'll try to connect it on the graphics card when i get back to work. I'll let you know how it goes, thanks.

A friend of mine did this, you are not the first. Too many monitor inputs!

Check the OC settings are still there since the bat was removed (unless you didn't move the jumper).

i had to reload the saved OC setting with help of the tech support. I got a really newbie question, my machine is overclocked at 4.4 does this mean that everytime i turn it on its automatically on 4.4?

Yes, I'd imagine the overclock profile loads everytime on system boot.

No. Intel speedstep ensures your cpu only runs at 4.4Ghz, when certain applications require it to. The rest of the time the cpu will run at lower speeds.

This is what I thought straight away.

Yes it does, sometimes systems need the overclock reloaded, usually happens after transit no idea why but once it has been loaded it will stay at 4.4GHz.

Remember speedstep is enabled so it won't be a constant 4.4GHz, more like 4.4GHz when the CPU is under full load which is when you need the extra core speed.

It shows you how to do this in your manual.
