Alright guys, I've tried everything i can think of to get this new build going. I've gone through several different threads and manuals. I'm beginning to think it might be the RAM at this point but not sure. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Ryzen 1200
Gigabyte A320ma-m.2 motherboard
Gskill Rip Jaws 8Gb ram F4-2666C15S-8GVR
Corsair CX650 PSU

Just using on board graphics

All done on outside of case on box.
Tried moving ram slots
Using known good working Monitor and HDMI,
Tried clearing CMOS via Battery removal and prongs.

Thank you in advance

The motherboard does not have a video controller. It's the CPU that provides it. The Ryzen does not have integrated graphics. That's why you need a graphics card. After installing one, connect the monitor to it, not to the motherboard,

I'm not trying to do a full gaming rig. This is for my daughter's and my wife to use.

Why do I have to use a graphics card if the motherboard has on board video?
