In this order:

- Test with a different display

- Test with spare cables (power and hdmi/vga/display port whatever)

- If you are using a pci-e graphics card, disconnect it and connect your display to the motherboards display output. If that solves the problem, reconnect the graphics card and test with a different PSU, if that solves it, PSU = Problem, if it doesnt, then the card is the problem.

- If you aren't using a PCI-e card (ie integrated GPU) test with different PSU. If that doesnt solve it, new motherboard time.
