I have a problem. It's the first time building a pc and I've run into a problem which is common but none of which fix my problem. The PC starts but nothing displays on the monitor. I have tested the monitor and it works. All the computer parts are new. The Motherboard beeps when i take out the RAM sticks. Do I need to say that the fans and lights work as well as the keyboard works (Tapping caps Lock, Number Lock will change the lights) and the mouse lights up as well. It just doesn't beep, or display anything. What does it mean?
CPU: AMD Athlon X4 750K
Motherboard: MSI FM2-A75MA-E35
Graphics card: Gigabyte radeon R9 270X
RAM: 2X4 Gb corsair vengeance
Hard drive: 1TB WD caviar black
Powersupply: 500W corsair CX500
Case: Rosewill Line-M
- Problem
*It won't boot
*Screen no turn on
Possible reasons for problem
- CPU: when attempting to re-seat it ONE pin was bent. I did my best to make it straight and checked to see if more than one was bent, aligned all the rows of pins to see if their all even. Then I placed it on the CPU socket, which it fit into place without any pressure or force. I sealed it up and secured it. I placed the cooler and all that back. Took off my RAM sticks to hear 3 beeps and I assume it still works...
- Motherboard: When installing my Graphics card I scratched the Motherboard enough to see it. I test to see if the motherboard was at least able to beep. So I took out my RAM sticks and yes it does it's 3 beeps. Not sure if it will cause any booting problems or if it passes booting, the future of this computer's performance.
If it still beeps even just error beeps is it OK?

Could you confirm whether these reasons can or can't apply, it would be helpful.
