Hello everybody!

I would like to ask for some help with my pc.
I have just built my first Pc:
Ryzen 5 1600
MSI B350 Tomahawk
Asus ROG Strix 1050 Ti 4gb OC
Samsung 960 EVO
HyperX DDR4 2666mhz
EVGA 650 GQ
Seagate BarraCuda 2TB

When I start the Pc the Motherboard Ez Debug leds lit up.
First the CPU for like 5-10 seconds, after that it goes off and the VGA led shows up for a few secs (5), finally the boot led lights constantly.
I tried letting it run for 5 minutes but nothing.
I tried moving the RAM from A2 and B2( these are the first ones), but nothing.

On the monitor nothing shows up, so I couldn’t get to bios.
When booting, VGA lights up, fans spinning for few secs and goes fans go off. CPU cooler fan spinning at high speed and slows down after.
I tried removing the SSD and dc-ing the HDD but nothing.

Any help would be appreciated.

First: double check which display ports you're using: make sure your display isn't attached to one of the motherboard ports but to one of the 1050ti's ports. If it is, it seems something's failing the POST process.

Reset CMOS and try again. You may need to do a reset that entails disconnecting the power cord, pulling out the pancake battery, shorting the RESET pins for 10-15 sec's. You may not have to do all that, but doing it can't hurt.

Then reassemble and try again. If it still does it try re-seating RAM and GPU and double checking all connections. If it's still not working you may have to take everything out of the case. One of the more common assembly errors is leaving an unused stand off in the case that shorts something on...

One of the more common assembly errors is leaving an unused stand off in the case that shorts something on the bottom of the motherboard, or a missing standoff(s) allowing the board bottom to contact the case motherboard tray.

Once it POSTs, go into BIOS first, verify it's finding all your hardware and set it up just using all defaults for CPU and RAM speed and save that as a profile.

NOW you can go ahead and install your OS!
