Hello Everyone,

This is the third PC I've built and I'm starting to think I must have got lucky the first two times... First I bought the wrong ram in the sense that I needed DDR4 and now I think my DDR4 ram still may be the problem...

Here are my specs:

Video: Radeon RX470
Memory: Ballistix 8GB DDR4 -2400 UDIMM 1.2V
HD: Samsung SSD 750 EVO
Motherboard: H110M-A Gigabyte LGA 1151
Power Supply: 600B EVGA
Processor: Intel Boxed Core i5-6400 FC-LGA 14C 2.70Ghz 6M Processor Cache 4

What is happening:

Computer is not beeping. USB Mouse, USB Keyboard, and HDMI monitor are not working. Fans turn on for processor, videocard, power supply, and case. Only lights that I see are on the video card.

I feel like I have everything hooked up properly but I am no expert. Have set up 2 previous computers without assistance and I felt like everything was going smooth on this one as well.

I tried removing the battery from the motherboard for a minute and putting it back in.

Any insight or ideas is much appreciated.

It's a common issue, I've built near half a dozen PC's, every time I have an issue with a new build it's the first thing I check, most of the time it's the problem.

Could it not being properly grounded be the issue? Two of the far edges do not have pins... do I need to move the pins so they are on the motherboard?

-Edit - Tried moving the pins - I know have 5 pins plus the center pin but still no beep
