For the first time I am actually switching my main PC from Windows to Linux.

Problem: When booting into Fedora there was no display output, I changed it to safe graphics to install everything and that fixed it but after the install finished I tried turning it back off and there was still no display output

What I have already tried: I’ve tried installing drivers and everything I could find although that shouldn’t be the problem since I have an AMD 6700xt and Fedora comes with AMD drivers built in. I also tried Installing Linux Mint thinking maybe the distro was the problem but it came up with the same issue.

And if anyone suggests it no there is no way I am going to daily drive on safe graphics.

Edit: I am dual booting on a single 500gb ssd with windows already installed on the other half of the drive, not sure if that would be the problem. Also a similar problem was happening on windows if I left the screen in login for too long without signing in the display would show no signal and it wouldn’t wake up if I moved my mouse or clicked or pressed any keys.

        You should have absolutely no issues with that hardware on Fedora.

        Could you try switching the display cable out? If that doesn’t work, try switching the cable to a different type (e.g. DisplayPort instead of HDMI or vice versa). If that also doesn’t work, try with a different display if you can.
