Hello all,
I am new to the forums here, but I seem to find myself always browsing this website with questions, or problems that I have run into, so I thought it would be a good idea to introduce a problem I am currently facing.
My current build:
Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-990FXA-UD7
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813128508
CPU: AMD FX-8350
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819113284
Memory (x2): G.SKILL Sniper Series 8GB (2 x 4GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1866
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820231460
Video Cards (x2): GeForce GTX 660
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814125443
SSD: OCZ Vertex 4 VTX4-25SAT3-128G 2.5" 128GB
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820227791
HHD: Western Digital WD Black WD1002FAEX

My problem:
I started the computer for the first time. All fans started, lights on the motherboard started, but I did not hear any beep at all (I installed the beeper on the board). The monitor is not receiving a signal from either video card. I read up in the motherboard manual for troubleshooting and check every cable, checked to make sure the memory was installed all the way, and also checked if the video cards were installed all the way. I found no issues. I however did find that some memory is not compatible with this motherboard, and the memory I bought is not on the list.
Link to compatibility list: http://download.gigabyte.ru/memory/memory_ga-990fxa-ud7.pdf
I recently emailed Gigabyte but I wanted some other input from experts like yourself.
Do you think its not starting due to the memory?
Thanks
