I tried different RAM, different CPU, different PSU, tried taking the RAM out of the system, nothing. No matter what I do, I get the 3 POST beeps and no output. (Yes, I removed ALL peripheral hardware)

You must not work on computers enough :rofl

ASROCK sucks balls so much. A friend and I built a computer with one, worst experience ever, DOA. Had to RMA it, I think he ended up getting a different brand.
