Sometimes, this happens when you forget to plug in the 4/8 pin EPS12V plug by your CPU socket. Make sure that is plugged in and working.

Didn't think of that, you could be right.
Motherboard:
Onboard Video Chipset
None
CPU:
Integrated Graphics: Intel HD Graphics 2000
Not sure where to go from here though...

Some motherboards have a jumper... with various settings
1) normal, 2) config, 3) recovery
Also move single ram to slot nearest cpu

I have been trying two separate cards. A 7770 and a 4670, I get the same beep code with both.
I flashed the most recent one, I assume it would support my CPU.... right?

Go into BIOS and disable the on-board motherboard video, since the i3 will have better.

Plenty of possibilities:
A) Damaged DVI cable
b) Damaged DVI port
c) Your board was built with VGA has primary before installation of any OS.
D) Bad board

Yes. I posted a few posts back that I got it working. I had tried 3 GPUs with DVI connections and they didn't work. I tried a VGA output instead and it finally worked.

If you remove the memory and then power on the computer do you hear a missing memory beep? Hopefully you do.. in which case it's a sign that the system is functioning at least to some capacity.
