I just put together my first PC (parts list below) and upon turning it on, the case and cpu fans run, but I get nothing on my monitor (HDMI) and no beeps from the case speaker. I’ve gone through several threads trying to break it down to one component, but couldnt short it when I tried breadboarding. I’d appreciate any ideas as I’m really stumped

Motherboard: ASrock b250m-HDV
CPU: Intel Pentium G4560
PSU: EVGA 400W
HDD: WD 1TB
RAM: Crucial 1x8GB DDR4 2133
No graphics card
 
Solution


If the CPU gets power, the CPU fan does spin, and no beeps when starting the board without RAMs, then board or CPU do not work.

My motherboard only has two slots for RAM, I've tried using each, and the same results occur. I just tried turning the PC on without RAM and it didn't boot at all, put it back in and still no boot, not even fans :(

No beeps but now it will not boot at all, all my connectors are correctly attached and I don't see what the problem could be.
