    Mac Pro Late 2013 A1481 ISSUE

    So the computer works minus a flaw with the HDMI port. LCDs get detected but they won't display. I plug the LCDS into the Thunderbolt port no issue. HDMI port doesn't seem to display. So I plugged in multiple monitors and used the HDMI port and it detects the display but won't give an image. One time it gave a grainy colorful distorted image which makes me wonder if it's a bad HDMI port or Gpu Board? Anyone have any ideas? I am leaning towards a Bad hdmi, or bad D300 GPU or maybe the top logic board? I have never seen this issue before and would like to fix it. Any suggestions would help. I believe I have to replace the board that's faulty but would like to not waste time pin pointing the issue

    Let me rephrase this. Using multiple Thunderbolt ports all LCDS will display with multiple connected but when I try the HDMI it never works. It detects the display but won’t display an image. So I have two Thunderbolt to hdmi plugged in and fine. When I try the HDMI port nothing.

          Checked the pins and they are all in tact but I can take a look under the microscope. You don’t think it’s one of the GPUS? Because these are dual AMD D300 GPUs.

                Swapped out HDMI IO board solved the issue. I believed it was this but hoped it wasn’t but it was. It has no bent pins yet sadly wasn’t working. Thanks ����
