Are you sure you selected the right HDMI profile on the TV? It could be detecting a signal on HDMI #2 while your PC is plugged into HDMI #1.

 

Additionally, do you have any other monitors around to see if it actually displays anything?

[yehia pcmr]

yes I'm sure it's the same hdmi and I tried 2 TVs I don't have a monitor

RAM seated properly? Don't be afraid to use some strength to seat it well.

 

Let's forget this ever happened...

 

Have you tried a different HDMI cable? Maybe even a DisplayPort cable?

 

Look in your motherboard box, you might have a motherboard speaker that will tell you what's wrong via audible beeps.

 

Some motherboards also have LEDs that light up in a specific order to communicate errors.

If you remove the GPU, and plug the HDMI straight into the motherboard, does the PC display anything?

it shouldn't, the 3600 doesn't have an igpu.

I totally missed that.

 

Shows you how long of an Intel CPU user I've been... Next build, I promise!

 

I hope the other methods worked for him though.

make sure ram is in slots 2 and 4. make sure the cable is plugged in the GPU, not in the motherboard.

I already cleaned the hdmi cable, replaced it with another hdmi cable, ram are in slot 2 and 4, they're properly seated since I heard 2 clicks, I cleaned the ram, I don't have a display port cable I'ma try to get one and I totally forgot about the beeper lmao
