    Posted: 08 Aug 2017 at 3:19am
Build

GPU: Zotac GeForce GTX 1060 AMP! Edition 6GB GDDR5

CPU: Ryzen 1600

RAM: G.Skill Ripjaws V Red DDR4 2666 PC4-21300 16GB 2x8GB CL15

PSU: Seasonic S12II 620W

Booting from gtx 1060 as Ryzen has no integrated graphics, using HDMI cable as GPU features HDMI and DVI and Screen features VGA and HDMI and have no adaptors.

All fans (case CPU and GPU) are spinning, but it shows "No signal" on the display whenever I turn on the PC, the point is, the display stops sleep mode when I turn on the PC, the screen goes from black to "No signal", as if the gpu is connecting but not sending image. It has no modification, just build it.
EDIT 1:
I think conections are OK, I have a video of it: https://youtu.be/0RNyvuJ3rRE
EDIT 2:
I have no extra hardware for testing.
EDIT 3:
The sounds the PC makes feel good, that makes me think it is actually booting, but the GPU is not transmitting video or not working at all except for the fans.

I assume you do not have Windows installed yet, so how can you tell by the sound the PC makes that it is actually booting Windows?

If you do not have Windows installed, all the PC can do is complete the POST process and you would go into the BIOS, or see a message that no bootable drive/OS can be found.

Are you sure the monitor is set to the HDMI input or is set to Auto Select for the input?

If the PC is actually "booting" as you think it is, and you have no signal to the monitor, and no other hardware for testing, all you can do is try to clear the CMOS/BIOS, and try starting the PC again.

If that does not work, there is nothing else you can do except try another video card.

Sorry, I just mix terms sometimes, and no, no windows installed, what I meant is that BIOS might be loading, but not shown on screen due to GPU issues, and yes, monitor set to HDMI.

ok some basics here
check
both 24 pin and 8 pin power plugs on board
remove ram and try to reinsert one stick into slot a2 (these require a LOT of force sometimes)
disconnect all usb headers and hd/sata cables
check the power plug onto graphics
remove and reseat the graphics card

now try and start the pc up (remember first boot for ryzen can take a min or two before anything looks like its going to work

Are you using the A2 and B2 slots for your memory?

Did you try using only one DIMM in the A2 or B2 slot as suggested above?

What is the full model number of your Ripjaws V memory. For example, F4-3200C16D-8GVK.

Memory compatibility is the major issue with Ryzen, and we are still struggling to get a comprehensive list of compatible memory. Your board's Memory QVL list is a good source of compatible memory:

OK, SOLVED.

I tried every RAM combination two stick y every two-slots combination, and one stick on every possible slot, what I didn't tried was the other stick on the slots, and now I did and it worked, so it wasn't RAM possition but RAM itself what was failing. SOLVED, close the thread.
