    I bought an i3 4330 and an asrock b85 pro4 i have 5gb ram and an ati radeon 5670 i've been told that my 5670 would work with the new mb but when i opened the pc i could hear the start up sounds etc but the screen stayed black.

    Am i missing something cus i just changed to my old setup and it works or they are not compatible ?And if my 5670 wont work with my new motherboard what graphic card should i buy for 100-150 euro?

    Too bad you ask after you bought.

    Anyway 5670 should work with that MB. Power connector issue? Is there power connector on Radeon 5670? I expect no.

    Disable integrated graphics from BIOS or set init display first etc to PCI Express card.

    Try other connectors than HDMI.

    I did use a vga on the motherboard from another screen and it worked and i used the same vga with a 12pin extension i think (its the white entry on the 5670 i think) and it didnt work

    Amd that video card worked on another setup? I still suspect it has something to do with integrated graphics 8and that motherboard is trying to use integrated). While that may be compatibility problem, that kind of problems are very rare. Doesn't mean it cannot be reason of course but probably something else.

    You DO have something like this between case and motherboard? http://img.bhs4.com/b2/5/b2564e13c512abbe8bc565c14d3b568a3bb0c9a7_large.jpg

    Well, maybe that vieo card has compatibility problem.

    However that smell of burning sounds dangerous. What PSU?

    Just smelling something is burning may not damage parts. If everything works fine, then you probably did not damage anything badly.
