New Build Not Displaying Startup Menu on screen

I recently built a new PC with the following components:

- Ryzen 5 2600 with CPU fan
- Gigabyte AB350M-DS3H mother board
- T-Force dark 3000 DDR4 Ram
- Gigabyte Geforce GTX 1050 OC GPU
- EV3A 500B PSU
- Rosewill Tyfring case
- Kingston 120GB SSD

I tried assembling the parts multiple times and could not get anything to display on the screen. I have no idea what the error is.

When i start my computer my fans all run and my mother board lights up. The GPU fans are not running. The cpu fan runs fast at first then slows down after 5 seconds. Both mouse and keyboard seem to be connecting.

I would really appreciate some help with this issue.

Thanks,

Tyler

did the motherboard require a BIOS flash to support the ryzen 2? it may need another AM4 CPU to update the BIOS before the motherboard can see the ryzen 2. AMD will send you a "boot kit" which is a CPU and cooler so you can flash the BIOS and return the boot kit to them.
does the system boot with the GPU removed using the internal GPU? the 500b is not the best PSU.

step 17 a speaker is very helpful as the motherboards main diagnostic feedback device.

The diagnostic speaker is the motherboards main diag feedback device.
the motherboard may be telling you where the problem is.
my speakers have this plug...

I use lamp wire but any stranded wire will do. literally any stranded wires. strip one end like so

attach the stripped end into the speaker spring clips on the speaker.
the other end of the wire should be trimmed like so the semi strip

by doing a semi strip the wire case is now the socket.
plug one wire to the first pin, and the second onto the fourth pin.
power on the system and listen for beeps

and for good measure, always ground yourself when working in a pc

Canned Grounding Rant-
shut down system and remove side panel. with the power cable plugged into the PSU touch a bare unpainted metal area of the case. (my favorite spot is an unpainted screw securing the PSU) once you have grounded yourself you can unplug the computers power cable from the PSU and can touch the system.
if you move your feet, or shuffle in your chair, plug in the cord, reground yourself and unplug again.

Thanks for responding.

The mother board says Amd ryzen 2000 ready so I think it’s up to date. I tried running without graphics card and still nothing displayed.

The mother board or case didn’t come with a speaker so I’ll go get a speaker from a computer shop.
