no beeps - your system's busted - swap the power supply if you can,
are you sure the mobo is getting power? any LED lights? Find a 'known
good' power supply and try that. Until you get through post, and the
beeps, don't add anything to the motherboard, especially out of the
box new stuff - these days, you are the mfg's QA.... and watch the
RMA dates & rules.

the build order is first power supply, then memory, then onboard video
- see the bios, then the boot drive, then the other drives & cards
