I recently completed building my new PC, but I'm having a tough time getting it to post or display the BIOS. Here are the specs of my build:
* CPU: Ryzen 5 7600X3D
* Motherboard: MSI B850M Gaming Plus WiFi 6E
* RAM: Corsair Dominator Platinum 64 GB (4x16 6200 MHz CL 36)
* GPU: EVGA RTX 3090 FTW3 Ultra
* PSU: BeQuiet Dark Power 14 1200W
I've already attempted some troubleshooting steps, such as reseating the RAM, testing with just 1 or 2 sticks in the A2/B2 slots, ensuring the CPU pins are not bent, and even clearing the CMOS with the button on the back of the motherboard. Unfortunately, none of these actions have resolved the issue. Any ideas on what might be causing this or if any parts could be defective?

First off, where are you plugging your monitor in? Make sure it's connected to the graphics card and not the motherboard's HDMI or DisplayPort. Sometimes the monitor might default to the integrated graphics instead. Good luck!
I've connected to both the graphics card and the motherboard since my CPU has integrated graphics, but neither seems to work.
