Ram and Motherboard help please.

Hello Linus community! I'm in need of some help please.. Yesterday I bought a GiGaBYTE H110M-H Motherboard, an Intel Celeron 2.9GHz LGA-1151 CPU and a Kingston HyperX 4GB DDR4-2400 Ram memory. I fitted the computer together but the monitor won't show a thing on the screen when I power it on . :(

I believe the memory and the motherboard is incompatible but I'm not 100% sure.. So please, can someone help me figure what could be the problem please?

Can you give more information about the rest of the computer? are you certain you have all the PSU connectors connected to the motherboard? Have you tried re seating the RAM?

 

I'd also recommend going through this checklist: 

 

Specs: CPU: AMD Ryzen R7 3700X @4.4Ghz, GPU: Gigabyte RX 5700 XT, RAM: 32 GB (2x 8GB Trident Z Royal + 2x 8GB TForce Vulkan Z) @3000Mhz, Motherboard: ASRock B550m Steel Legend, Storage: 1x WD Black 1Tb NVMe (boot) + 1x Samsung 860 QVO 1Tb SSD (storage), Case: Thermaltake Core V21, Cooler: Noctua NH-D15

Make sure the computer turns on. If nothing happens (no lights, no sound, no fans, etc.), the computer has a power related issue.

 

Make sure all fans are running on the computer. If a fan has failed (especially the heat sink fan for the CPU), your computer could be overheating or detecting the fan failure, causing the computer not to boot.

 

check that all the cables are securely connected to the computer and that there are no loose cables by firmly pressing in each cable.

All disk drives should have a data cable and power cable connected to them.
Your power supply should have at least one cable going to the motherboard. Many motherboards may also have additional cables connected to them to supply power to the fans.

 

Re-insert the memory into the same slot.

If you have more than one stick of memory, remove all but one stick of memory and try rotating through each stick

Try one stick of memory in each slot.

 

reseat the CPU by removing it and re-inserting it into the socket. You could also try applying fresh thermal compound between the CPU and the heat sink

 

if all of them don't work i don't know but that's all the reasons i know to fix a pc if its not posting unless you have a faulty motherboard/ram/cpu

What is the exact Celeron CPU that you have, the model number is important, as the one you have may not be compatible whit your motherboard.

CPU: i7 3770K | MB: EVGA Z77 FTW | RAM: HyperX Savage 2400Mhz 16GB | GPU: R9 280X Toxic | Cooler: Scythe Fuma | PSU: CoolerMaster B600

SSD: Crucial MX300 525GB | HDD: Seagate Barracuda 7200.12 500GB - Toshiba DT01ACA300 3TB

I'm using a Intel Dual Core 2.90 Ghz G3930 2M LGA1151 Processor.

@Sayori I've even remove the ram and place it in each slots to test it. I also verify that all the PSU are connected. :(

@Jevjev I believe everything is connected properly (I hope >.<). The CPU fan works properly, the power button lights up when powered on. The CD-Rom opens and shuts just fine, but I've notice the computer doesn't make a sound or a beep when powered on. May it's a power related issue like you said. I have a 500V power supply installed, maybe it can't power it fully?
