    You have to or at least I do wonder if a display port is messed up
    If you mother board has onboard graphic's remove the gpu and restart using the onboard graphic's instead,

    Most if not all gpu's will disable onboard graphic's so it much be removed.

    Then page two of basic's is make sure the monitor is connected and powered on before you startup.

    I would suggest connecting a chassis speaker. It's the only way to determine why the POST is failing. Well, not the only way but it's the cheapest way. The only other method is to purchase a POST display card. Some high-end MBs have LEDs to display the error. I didn't see that on your MB but I scanned the manual quickly.
    Found a working case speaker. No beeps at all when I power it up.
    Found my RAM specs. It's a pair of Mushkin Blackline 4GB. Speed is listed as PC3-12800. Have no idea if that's compatible with my mobo

    Changed out my current memory for a lower speed, it was 1600 which is only supported by overclock on my mobo, but putting in a set of 1330 chips didn't change anything. No error beeps, no video output, nothing. Starting to think it might be a faulty mobo

    What was the source of the motherboard? Did someone try to flash the BIOS?

    Add a link to the exact item you purchased,

    Which type of cable are you connecting to the monitor with dvi/ vga/ hdmi/ mini display ?
