    Are you able to see things on the screen/is the screen working?

    Have you checked that the CPU is making proper contact with the heatsink.

    The screen is perfect, displays everything.
    The cpu is ok and cooling.
    The gpu i can't tell if its working, but it's heating and not cooling.

    Try swapping the fans (I believe they have the same connector) It could be the fan has failed.
