You need a motherboard speaker. One beep indicates a successful POST.

^ This. I strongly recommend if it doesn't come with a speaker, plug it into the GPU and see if it boots and gives any picture, but if your CPU supports onboard, plug it into the onboard then go into the BIOs and disable integrated. :)
