So I just built my second PC and am running into a problem
The system right now is setup like this dx79si 2gb skill z series ripjaw 2133 and pny 4gb 680 gtx no HDD yet just trying to boot to bios but I am getting no video signal what could be the problem here?
 
& the power supply is? what about the cpu?

looking at the bios updates right now, they sure have a ton of fixes, maybe you just need to update it
 
Sorry it is an i7 3820 and atx ultra x3 1000 watt with x4 cables
 
Hi

*Power down the sytem

1 Remove vga card and ram

2 Unplug 24pin & *8pin [*if required by mobo] Power from Motherboard & Clear CMOS

3 Install minimal hardware: PSU; CPU & Heatsink; one stick of RAM and vga card [*boot to bios; If NO]

4 Use Spare compatible RAM and or borrow from a friend if possible [*boot to bios; If NO]

5 Use Spare vga card and or borrow from a friend if possible [*boot to bios; If NO]

Reseat CPU *do not over tighten heatsink [check for bent pins and or other damage] and repeat process 1 through to 5

[*boot to bios; If NO] check with another monitor and vga; HDMI, DVI and or other cables

*Double check all PSU cables are secure [fans not spinning on mobo; no sign of life * check with another PSU] make sure your PSU is registered within the thirty day limit; incase it fails or develops a fault

Assemble system out side of case place mobo on anti static bag and box lid [to ensure the hardware is not shorting out]

Note: If able to see bios on screen; go here to update motherboard bios, once updated try with the original hardware config in the opening post

nb: try not to double post, use edit button if you need to add more information, thanks

Edit: attach system speaker so beep codes can be heard for mem and vga *if mobo gives errors
