So I'm building my first computer, and I've got everything together. The motherboard green light comes on when I turn on the power supply, and when I press the power button all the fans start up, but no signal comes through to my monitor. I just picked up a motherboard speaker to hear the BIOS beeps, but nothing is coming through that either. I looked up all of the common mistakes that could lead to this problem, and I've crossed most of them off the list. My mobo has no video output so I can't bypass the GPU, but it does have an updated BIOS that should be compatible with the CPU. I made sure that the CPU and GPU had their dedicated power. I took out one stick of RAM. I cleared CMOS. I tried putting the GPU in the second PCI-E slot. I tried outputting in both VGA and HDMI. I tried two different monitors. Nothing. Though when I turn on the computer, the message on the monitor changes from "check signal cable" to "no signal."
Any ideas for me? I am new to this so it's possible I'm missing something obvious, though I've read several guides on building a computer and have gone through the checklists. Here are my parts:
Mobo: Asus M5A97 LE R 2.0
GPU: EVGA GTX 650
CPU: AMD FX 6300

Let me know if you need pics, and thanks for any help!
