3 beeps, no ram installed, won't be any video because it still hasn't booted to bios. Incompatible ram seems like it could be your issue, but 2 bad motherboards out of the box? I have never had one out of the box bad in 25 years. Anytime something was screwed up, it was something I did. Also Keep in mind that some motherboards want a certain wattage Power Supply. My Daughter built a computer last year, i gave her a P.S. (450 watts), I had and it wouldn't boot, it was 50 watts less than the MB recommended, went to microcenter got a 700 watt and it has been fine. Good Luck.
