Question No screen output on a new build ?

[theyikes]

Hi. I recently purchased a Gigabyte A520M DS3H V2 motherboard and an AMD AM4 Ryzen 5 4500 CPU.
Based on what I've read, the two are meant to be compatible.

Well i put the whole lot together along with an GeForce RTX 3050 8GB GPU and 64gb CORSAIR VENGEANCE LPX DDR4 RAM and a new 750W psu. When i power it up the keyboard lights up and the cpu fan spins but after that I'm getting noting but a blue screen.

I tried removing the GPU, and then i tried re-seating the ram. is there anything else i can try?

I removed the PSU and checked it on an other board and it's working fine.

I'm stumped on this one.

I'd love any help!

first reset CMOS.
Remove all memory but one stick . place it in the second slot away from CPU.
Reinstall video card. CPU does not have IGPU.
Connect monitor to video card and boot.
Give it a couple minutes to train memory.

I did actually think of that but i cant' find the jumper for restting the cmos. I did try removing the bios battery for 60 seconds.

****UPDATE**** i just found the cmos reset jumper switch.

I just tried the RAM on a different board. Works just fine.

Some Vengeance ram does not play nice with some Ryzen systems.
Do a hard reset.
Unplug from wall.
Press the power button a few times.
Remove the battery for about 5 minutes.
Press the power button a few more times.
Reset /clear cmos.
Replace battery and video card and boot.
Give it time. It may restart a couple times before you see anything on the monitor.
Once memory training is done you should get one beep. and boot to bios.
This can take a few minutes. Be patient.
It is not like old systems where it booted to bios in a few seconds on first boot.
Some times it takes a few minutes for the memory controller and memory modules to work out a working speed and timings. Large capacity Vengeance memory can take a few minutes.
About 3 minutes on my 3600 with 16 gigs Vengeance 3600 cas 18 ram.
After that just a few seconds.

Unolocogringo thanks for the lengthy reply. I'm in the office today so it'll be this afternoon before I get round to trying it out. I'll let you know how it goes. Cheers again for the advice.
