Generally this means driver mismatch, your h/w is probably ok. Strange.

The GPU has two power connecters , I have attached two seperate power cables instead of one split cable with two connectors.
I also had to install the WiFi pcie adaptor to the second pcie slot from the mini pcie slot because the GPU was covering the mini slot. Could this have caused a conflict or pcie lane issue which shut down the LAN port?
I have removed the PCIe wifi card, and replaced the old nvidia card, still same issue

Go through the posts of everyone that's replied and come back with the photos/screenshots that they asked for.
You're getting nowhere with this because the information you're providing isn't helpful on it's own.
We need to see what you're seeing in order to fully understand what's happened.

I had once knocked a small capacitor lose while installing a GPU. The lan port stopped working as a result. Learnt to be more careful after that!
I have checked everything, it is a hardware issue, is it worth it getting it RMAed, the mother board is in warranty and was purchased for 14K. I dont have space to install a PCIe lan card, the empty PCIe slot has the WIFI+ blutooth card installed which is what is use to go online.
