Hi,
I just built a PC following tutorials. When I turn the power on, everything lights up: fans, cpu coolers, RGB ram, but there is no display on monitor.

I am sure it is not the monitor because I have tried with two monitors - one with display port and the other with HDMI, but neither is working.

One of the ram sticks was not lighting up at first, but even when I reinstalled it, there still is no display. Note: I don't have a GPU yet (still waiting for backorder) so I plugged the monitor to the motherboard IO.

I have attached a picture of what my PC looks like when turned on.


Here are the PC specs if this is relevant:
CPU: Ryzen 7 3800x
MoBo: Asrock B550M Pro4
Ram: G-Skill Trident RGB 2x8GB = 16GB
SSD: Western Digital SN550 M.2 NVME - 1TB
PSU: Cooler Master 750 MWE Gold
Case: Corsair 280x

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

The picture and your specs don't show a discrete GPU. If this is a trick post/question, then you're not going to get any display regardless of how many display output ports you have on your motherboard since you don't own an AMD Ryzen APU or at the very least the R7 processor you have does not have an iGPU on it.

Long story short, you either get a replacement GPU or you wait for the GPU you ordered to come in.

Thank you very much for your reply. No, this is not a trick, but you thinking so goes to show how inept I am lol.

I am going to try using my Radeon 7770 from my old PC and will let you know it works.
