Hi guys,

I'm at a loss, this is my first ever build to help support a career dream of mine. I've spent all day dealing with other minor issues and finally thought it was good to go but no signal is being detected on my monitor and a red light is showing on the boot led. I've had a look at other threads and not getting anywhere.

My build is:

Specs: amd Ryzen 7 2700x

Msi b450 gaming pro AC motherboard Geforce gtx 1060 GPU

Samsung 970 Evo plus ssd

Corsair vengeance lpx ddr4 2x16gb ram

Evga supernova 550 G3 PSU

Nzxt h50 case

I've removed the ram and tried in different slots and it still happens. I'm not sure how to really diagnose this as the issue is on boot which means the booting device is not detected or in fail? I'm not very techy so would really appreciate some guidance! Could this be a motherboard failure? Or SSD issue?
