I dont hear any beeps, but the left side of the motherboard is red (I think thats the colour it is when it goes on) and there is a number bottom middle of the motherboard, but I dont think that means anything

Ok I took out the GPU and let the CPU graphics card do its thing and it works, but im a bit confused about the GPU, can someone tell me about how the GPU should be plugged in?

Make and model of GPU?

Put the GPU in PCI-E slot and connect the GPU to your PSU.

Make sure it is firmly in place.


Also, is it your first time building a system?

I got it to work, I was putting the HDMI cable not in the GPU but in something else lol. But I am currently installing windows 8 but the GPU fans are not spinning, is this normal?
