Silly question: have you connected your display cable to the graphics card?

Aside from that, full specs of system?

Yes the cable is plugged in
I have
A and 2400g
16gb ram
Gigabyte ab350m
R9 280x
Corsair vs 550

Most motherboards should default to the graphics card if one is installed. But as you don't get a signal from the graphics card at the moment, consider reconnecting the display cable to the motherboard for the integrated graphics to work, enter BIOS and look for an option to prioritise the graphics card output; might be something like 'PEG'.

At the very least, see if you can boot to desktop with the graphics card installed but displaying through the integrated graphics (display cable connected to motherboard). Assuming you're using Windows, see if Device Manager sees an unknown display adapter (may even require 'show hidden devices'). We can get an idea if the graphics card is working to some extent then if the BIOS prioritisation doesn't work.

My r9 280x boots up fine with a good temp but when I go on for Honor it start buzzing and then crashes what should I do.
