You only need one of the cables connected to the monitor

Try changing the monitor to HDMI and connecting it via HDMI instead.

Could it be because both are plugged in? Or does that not matter

Both being plugged in shouldnt be an issue, are you certain you have plugged the cables in correctly maybe try switching the wire around so the ends are going in the other way. If that doesnt work I am fully stumped. It works fine for most people.

Why would you have them both plugged in?

Why would you have them both plugged in?

I did not even know what they were, so I just plugged them in.

I mean the same monitor can be used as a dual monitor where you would click to change the source of the monitor to switch to a different screen.

try plugging one of the cables into each one of the cards then checking if it worked. do trial and error

I had something like this problem like a week ago trying to sell my PC to my friend.

we had it plugged in but it wouldnt show on the screen.

All we did was unplug Ram > Plug it back in and it worked.

(We had the cables right tho)
