Igpu giving display but dedicated GPU isn't

[tonv]

Hello,
So I recently upgraded my motherboard and CPU, I gave my previous stuff to my friend. Well now he's having trouble because his GPU isn't posting, only the igpu works. He's using a Rx 5600 xt which I've tested it in my system and It works. I tried using a different GPU Rx 580 but It doesn't give a post either. Before inserting the GPU I removed all the drivers using ddu. Both of these cards are working in my system but not on his. I tried swapping the boot drive but nothing changed. I know that the board pcie slot is working since I tested It yesterday. I already tried resetting the bios, cleaned GPU drivers and igpu too, swapped monitors, changing the bios mode on GPU but nothing seems to work. I'd highly appreciate any help on this.
My specs:
Ryzen 5 3600
8gb 2666mhz ddr4
Aorus Elite b550m rev 1.3
Thermaltake Toughpower GF 650w
Friends specs:
i3 9100
8gb 2666mhz ddr4
Gigabyte h310m d2vx si 2.0
Xpg Pylon 650w

It doesn't even goes to the bios, all the time It's black screen and then eventually monitor goes to sleep

The pc does turn on along side with the GPU.

All I can think of is an compatibility issue. Does switching between UEFI/CSM do anything? I'd update the BIOS from your friend's motherboard too.

It's already updated to the latest. I am not sure how to switch between uefi and csm

Should be somewhere in the BIOS, I don't have a modern Gigabyte board on hand so I can't confirm.

Have you tried using a different cable with the dedicated GPU?

Tried it with two different hdmi cables and dvi

Do you also get a black screen when you select the right input on the monitor? Depending on the monitor setup, it may not detect a cable swap.

yeah, already tried that. Doesn't work either

Quick search, someone else pointing the finger at Gigabyte: https://community.amd.com/t5/graphi...nabled-and-discrete-gpu-connected/td-p/509900

Definitely check BIOS settings, default video card, UEFI/CSM... Maybe even look whether the cables are plugged into the right outputs.
Now way this is a PSU issue, a GPU should be able to get into the BIOS even of you disconnect the PCIe power cable.

I'm not sure what I'm suppose to be doing here. I tried resetting the bios too but it just doesn't work with either GPU. Only the igpu is giving display, even if I remove igpu's drivers from ddu or device manager still the dedicated GPU doesn't posts. I also tried using different pcie cables but it doesn't work either

Drivers doesn't affect POSTing since the drivers are loaded when in the operating system.

That motherboard seems to be some OEM model, Gigabyte doesn't even list it on their website. You said the mobo and CPU was your old combo. Did you try the same GPU that worked in your system in your friend's config? If so, the only difference would be the PSU.

NB: you should only use the cables that came with the power supply.

What did you use to test the PCIe slot?

What did you use to test the PCIe slot?

My friend has an old amd Radeon hd 6450 I used it to test it 3 hours ago. I just gave the mobo and CPU yesterday. It was running without any issues with Rx 580.

That motherboard seems to be some OEM model, Gigabyte doesn't even list it on their website. You said the mobo and CPU was your old combo. Did you try the same GPU that worked in your system in your friend's config?

Yes, I've tried using my Rx 580 on the config It just doesn't wanna post.

NB: you should only use the cables that came with the power supply.

I'm well aware of that, I meant the second pcie cable that's in the psu
