Try flipping the switch on the back of the power supply if nothing is turning on.

What did you connect the HDMI in? The motherboard or the graphics card? That's a common mistake people do.

 

And what do you mean by connect the RGB and nothing came up? What is the RGB you are referring to?

RGB means "red green blue" and refers to a light that can display many colors. Are you talking about VGA or DVI?

Mate... The 3.5mm jacks on the motherboard are audio jacks, not analogs...

 

You need to connect the HDMI cable from the graphics card to the monitor directly.

Are you using HDMI at all? These are the commonly used video connectors:

 

Are you using VGA or HDMI? Are you using an adapter?

HDMI and the VGA. so if i use the HDMI do i have to connect to the GPU?

Yes, if you have a GPU never use the video ports on the motherboard. Also, you don't need to use two connectors unless you have two monitors.

Yeah, audio isn't the problem here, though it it confusing.
