New PC no video output

iKingRPG · January 10, 2020

Just built a PC with

asus prime b450m-a/csm motherboard

Ryzen 2600

Ballistic 16gb ddr4 3200mhz ram 2x 8gb sticks

EVGA 80+ white 500w PSU

And I can't get it to post, the fans spin and the orange lights are on.

I tried swapping the RAM with 1x viper 2400mhz 4gb ram, still same result.

I checked all of the power supply cables in the motherboard, I re placed the CPU, I tried different HDMI cables and a dvi cable, I moved the ram into every possible configuration, nothing.

I tried basically every troubleshooting trying I could think of. Even the speaker that came with the thermaltake case won't work.

I hope someone here can help me, thanks.

What graphics card? The Ryzen 5 2600 doesn't have integrated graphics, so for video output you need a graphics card.

Oh.. I feel stupid. I guess I'll pick up a GT 710 or 1030 or something then lol

Edit: ok so I got a 710 and the PC works great now! Probably the most graphics intensive thing we will every do on this PC is watching YouTube so it is fine
