I am not getting any display at all, checked to make sure everything is getting power. This is my first build and I thought I followed the steps carefully plugging everything in. I tried using the vga port to an old computer monitor but I read that won't work due to I don't have the vga data downloaded yet. So right now I have it hooked up from the graphics card HDMI to a flat screen tv. I still have no display though. Here's my build:

No. I haven't been able to install anything since nothing is coming up on display and can't even get into BIOS. All I've been able to do is install all the hardware above into the case, connected everything and turned it on. I put the motherboard driver disc into the new optical drive i purchased but still nothing displays.
 
You will have to use your GTX1660 card as your test point as your CPU does not support graphics making the motherboard onboard graphics port redundant.

Double check you have all connections to the motherboard and graphics card in place and secure.

Do any fans spin when you try and start the PC?

When you boot with the Windows 10 media it will give you basic video to enable the installation of Windows 10 so you will not need to load any extra drivers to boot Windows.

If you are satisfied everything is connected correctly, and it still doesn't boot, then remove everything from the case and rebuild the system outside of the case on a piece of cardboard (or non conductive surface) to retest

It's working! Apparently the ram sticks weren't pushed into place all the way. I was able to get display and currently installing Windows. I REALLY appreciate your help! Thanks so much.
