One day I was unplugging my computer and I took a stick of ram out. I put it back in and went to my friends, I plugged it in and turned it on but it wouldn't load anything on the monitor. I when I got home I looked everywhere online and did everything from resetting the CMOS to taking everything out and putting it back in again. I'm so lost, any sort of help would be great. I have tried a different psu and graphics card. I know its not the hard drive because I put it in my pc downstairs and it worked. I also tried different ram and took the cpu off and put new thermal paste on. There is no beeps. Also my integrated graphics do not work on my cpu.
PC: Desktop
CPU: AMD A4-7300 3.8GHz
GPU: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 560 TI
RAM: 16GB DDR3 1600MHz
OS: Windows 10

does the motherboard have a speaker attached to the front panel header?
any speaker will work, I have used speakers from my stereo.
hook up the speaker and remove the RAM. try to boot the system. the motherboard should beep at you like an angry astromech.
if you cannot replicate a beep code in the following manner then I declare the Motherboard dead.

I could feel both of the earbuds pick up but I heard no beeps. And the fans are spinning.

Have you made sure that the memory is inserted all the way? Have you tried removing that stick of memory?
Have you made sure the 4 pin CPU power cable and 24 pin motherboard cable is plugged in properly?

At this point it may be very well that you either static discharged the motherboard or shorted it with that stick of memory.
