Built my first system over thanksgiving break, but the CPU ez debug light showed on the mother board. Returned the CPU, got a new one, same problem. I've that maybe the BIOS is an older version and I need to update that, but how am I supposed to do that with no POST. When I power the system on, all the fans start spinning. No beeps though, but I don't think there's anything on the case or on the MOBO that're supposed to make noise. 
Specs: 
CPU: Ryzen 3 1300x 

GPU: EVGA GTX 1050ti

MOBO: MSI B350m Gaming Pro

Power Supply: EVGA 500 watt 80+ white 

RAM: Corsair Vengeance LPX 8GB 

Case: Corsair Carbide spec-04

Forgive me if you've done these troubleshooting steps already, or if they seem obvious. The bios version is irrelevant. If everything is installed properly, it should at least show a display on the monitor. It is recommended to update the bios ASAP, however.

 

Double check the PSU 24-pin and 8-pin connections to the board.

If your memory consists of two dimms, try using only one at a time in each slot.

Ryzen has no integrated graphics, make sure your monitor is plugged to the GPU, not motherboard.

Remove GPU and re-insert. Same with CPU if all else fails.

Ryzen boards often take up to 10 minutes for the very first POST. Give it time.

I don’t know your ram model #, but based on a quick Newegg search the ram doesn’t look to be compatible by cross referencing it to your MB.

I have a cue light I can use to show you when I’m joking, if you like.
