[SOLVED] No display issue, beeping.

[hidden.mindproject]

Hello,

I truly am sorry to add to the pile of threads about this, but i am at my wits end on this first build.

https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/user/JoshuaAnderson/saved/V2fCbv

When i first powered on, i got a single beep on the vga, then 5 beeps.

So, i removed 3 sticks of ram, the graphic card and tried again.

This time i got 1 beep, but nothing else.

so I have gone through your POST fixing advice, made double sure my motherboard and cpu worked together. Checked the cpu, the cooler, the ram, i am quite lost.

I reinstalled the gpu. It lights up beautiful, spins. But still no display.

I have led lights on the motherboard and a test speaker, but...i don't know how to progress.

Tl:dr - post beep once, then 5 times.
Stripped, Now only beeping once.
Cpu fans turn on, but not case fans.

Hi,
"This time i got 1 beep, but nothing else."
How have you connected the monitor? Or using tv?

 

[hidden.mindproject]

I have it connected via display and hdmi cable to my monitor that was tested by provider.

"I have it connected via display and hdmi cable"
Why display and hdmi cable?
Have you tested via hdmi cable only and no go?

 

[hidden.mindproject]

Was just part of my troubleshooting to try both hdmi and display

 

[alexoiu]

Ah, ok. What beeps getting if starting the board with only CPU and CPU cooler installed?

 

[hidden.mindproject]

I get 1 longer beep and 2 short beeps.

Then apparently board and CPU do work. Try with monitor connected to motherboard (graphics card removed) and single RAM, testing each RAM slot. See if still no signal.

Clearly this https://ovo.fyi/fmovies/ "staff" person has no idea what there talking about. Ryzen takes advantage of memory and the difference between 2666 & 3200 could be as much as 10 FPS if not more. Go with the 3200mhz and enable AXMP in the BIOS to get it to run at the correct speeds. https://ovo.fyi/yesmovies/ If AXMP doesn't work then check to make sure the memory is placed in the correct slots (could be A1/B1 or A2/B2. https://ovo.fyi/solarmovie/

I tried each ram stick, in my a1 slot. They all worked.

I then installed all the ram, into the 4 slots. No beeps.

I also installed my graphic card, and I'm not getting any beeps, but still no display on my monitor

Ok well, i plugged my display cable into my gpu and that seemed to work?

Is there any disadvantage to using gpu ports compared to motherboard?

You not only want to, but you must use the GPU's video connector if you intend to use a GPU. This is NOT negotiable. And there is zero advantage to using the video connector on the motherboard.

No disadvantage, at contrary.
When graphics card installed, the onboard video is automatically disabled, therefore you have to connect the monitor to the graphics card.
