hey everyone, I have a 790 tower with an upgraded 500w PSU and a Quadro 4000, I have had the GPU for a couple months and one day I booted up my pc, I got solid amber light, no display signal, no beeps, and I think diagnostic light code 2 3 4, so I don't know if my PCI-E slot is broken or my GPU is, I don't have another pc to check the GPU in so please let me know what the issue is.
Ok well I'm still having issues, I tried it with the new q4000 and I get a solid blue light with diagnostic lights 1234 lit up, I take out the gpu and it still works fine
Do you mean same diagnostic light 234 when new gpu is in? This 234 code is supposed to suggest possible usb failure, but that does not help. Since the old card used to work but now both new/old card stop working w 790, logical suspicion is somehow bios cannot pass firmware test/POST when this card is in, but is okay to POST when this card is out. Have you already replaced cmos battery and cleared cmos settings by jumper reset?
thank Brad for already helping you on how to clear cmos. just to illustrate on the 790 MT motherboard the cmos and password jumper pins are shown in red circle (there may be a silkscreen of RTCRST next to cmos pins). default blue jumper is on password pins. after ground your fingers on chassis, you move blue jumper to cmos pins for 5-10 sec then move back to password pins.

if I understand you correctly, pc is able to POST and boot without quadro 4000.
with quadro 4000 in pc, you see solid amber light, no display signal.
brad is correct to suggest replace cmos battery w a brand new CR2032.
also try clear cmos settings by reset RTCRST jumper on motherboard.
