Hi guys, i have been encountering some issues with my Desktop recently. Would appreciate your inputs to help me resolve the issues.

Recently, my monitor fails to detect my cpu whenever it is on. Previously, my solution to this problem is to change the gpu port which my monitor is connected to. However, this time the solution failed to work.

Upon checking more, i realized that my gpu fans were not spinning while my computer is booting up. This makes me wonder if the gpu is dead OR there is not enough power to power up the GPU?

If required, the specs of my gpu, monitor and psu are as followed:
GPU: ZOTAC GTX 960 (7 months old)
Monitor: dell U2415H (2 months old )
PSU: Seasonic M12-520W (4~5 years old).

Do you guys have any suggestions that I can do to resolve this issue?

If you have no spare to swap, bring rig to Nigel at PC Care and Solution, SLS.

i encountered a similar problem recently and i changed my psu, now it is back to normal.

your psu age is about the time it will start generating lower power or spoiling.( same as mine.)
