Hello everyone,

I recently bought a machinist x99-b9 motherboard for dirt cheap on aliexpress as well as a xeon e5 1650 v3, my idea was to make a super budget PC for gaming.
I paired those 2 with a cheap nvme, a rtx 2060 i had lying around, 16 gb of drr4 in the cheapest m-Atx case i could find.

So the building process went great this is not my first time building a pc at all and the PC turned on on the first try HOWEVER there was no video signal output whatsoever..
So i tried a bunch of things : changing ram slots and ram sticks, changing the 2060 with a 5700 xt (both of these work on my main PC), clearing the cmos, changing the cmos battery completely with a new one i had AND finally i tried a different monitor with both display port and hdmi..

Nothing of what i tried worked so here i am asking for help if anyone knows a bit more than i do :)

Things to note : the PC turns on fine (rgb, fans and the gpu are all spinning/on) however there is no posting beep or any error beep and since there is no led debug on the motherboard itself its kind of hard to debut.
The PSU is a corsair cx550 which i bought and tested and is working fine.

Thanks a lot
