There are so many things to check with this.

Make sure your 4/8 pin connector is connected to the motherboard to power your graphics card. Some boards require only a single 8 pin or a 4 and 8 pin, on those boards if you just have the 4 pin plugged in and not the 8 pin many times this will not work.

Make sure your graphics card is properly seated in the MB.

Make sure your graphics card has power to it as well, look for 4/6 pin connectors on the graphics card.

Verify your CPU was installed correctly, and look for any bent pins on the motherboard.

Make sure you used the MB standoff screws, and only the ones required, to ensure your board does not short out.

Once again listen for sounds.

are the Fans spinning? if they are, you could try unplugging Power removing the CMOS battery and wait 10/20 secs and than reinstall the CMOS battery plug power cable back in and power on your system.

Is your system getting through post? Do you have a computer speaker attached? do you hear any beeps? Have you tried a different monitor? You aren't seeing a bios splash screen at all even? Is everything staying on?
