I have built my first pc - when I turn on the PC, the monitor displays: out of range. I first updated the bios on Asus' website using a FAT 32 USB to support my cpu. My components are listed below. My power supply is connected with a 20 + 4 pin connector and 8 pin connector for CPU. My motherboard is mounted with standoffs properly. I am using a very cheap vga card, as my motherboard does not have onboard graphics. A few things I had trouble with was seating the amd fan in the motherboard - could that be the problem.
Also when I turn on the pc, the fans are spinning, the optical drive works. Also I didn't find a motherboard speaker with my build - so I won't here any beeps. My memory is in the correct dimm slot. There are no loose screws in my case.
Parts
CPU: AMD FX-8320
Motherboard: Asus M5A97 R2.0 ATX AM3+
Memory: Crucial Ballistix Sport 8GB (1 x 8GB) DDR3 - 1600 Memory
Case: Corsair 200R ATX Mid Tower Case
PSU: EVGA 500W 80+ Bronze Certified ATX Power Supply
Cheap VGA Card for video output: 3d Phantom VGA Card
I will get a proper gpu (MSI Radeon R9 270), but I want to know if the build is not working or the vga card is too bad.
