Question I have built my pc but the BIOS won't appear on my screen or anything for that matter.

[HamezThe1st]

This is my first time building a PC so I don't really know what I am doing. I did however manage to make it turn on (GPU fans going, CPU fan going, and other fans in the case working. However when I come to boot the PC nothing shows up on my monitor. The Hard Drive LED on my motherboard is on but I don't remember putting a specific cable for it in.

My Specs:
Asus ROG Strix B450-f Gaming Motherboard
CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 2700x
GPU: MSI Geforce GTX 1650
Power Supply: Corsair 650 watts CX series
Case: Carbide Series Delta Force Corsair
RAM: Corsair Vengence 8gb x2

I do know that my GPU doesn't use a power cable but it seems to be working.

Alright you have some pretty simple troubleshooting things to try. First make sure that when you are booting that your display cable is plugged into the graphics card and not the motherboard. If the cable is plugged into the motherboard their will be no video signal because most ryzen chips don't have built in graphics. I have one more question that may help. Do you have a drive installed in the system?
Hope this works for you!

Oh and by the way it sounds like you did everything right and I believe the system should be working. I am going to check your motherboard manual to see if the light means anything.
