My old pc died and i tried to find what spoiled

Took out all storage and gpu, left only psu, cpu, mobo and ram

When i press power button, fans spin but no display. Does that mean mobo is fine? But when i take out ram there’s suppose to be a beep right? I dont hear any beep

What is the likely cause of this, is it the ram? Or mobo!

usually cpu wont spoil right? im thinking either mobo or ram problem but siding toward ram becos mobo can power the fans fine

very unlikely for cpu to spoil. try resitting the cpu and the ram.
