checked it. it's a 10A 240V flat to round converter. i used extension box/power strip earlier but too cluttered because of extra long wires. it's a 1kva numeric UPS but the monitor does go black momentarily when gaming while transfer happens to ups and main power during power cuts.
Need help in building My first ever gaming PC

It will work but don't connect anything other than pc & monitor.
That's normal,usual ups switch over times are not fast enough so monitor/tv goes blank for a second or two without completely turning off while trying to adjust.

OK...ordered that one & the HDMI to VGA converter too...i will get it till 6th end.
By the will i need anything else?someone suggest me to buy a cooler...he said buy any normal cheap cooler...is it necessary?& yes i tried to switch on the CPU but it was not turned on.
Cooler,you mean after market cooler for processor? That is only required if you notice 70C+ processor temps most of the time while running pc.
Post pics of your mobo with all connections.

Your ram should be in alternate slots. Check mobo manual. Clean up the cable mess and re-route them to the back of the case. I can't see the front panel connectors.

Not necessarily. You assembled this with someone's help?
Did you guys tried testing it outside the cabinet before assembling everything inside?
Check if the switch on the psu is ON.
Check all the cables are properly plugged in.
- Case cables esp. power line
- CPU fan cable is not installed in system fan pin
- 24 pin, 8 pin CPU, 8/6 pin PCI E
Just install one ram stick, you don't need everything to get into BIOS
No need of drives at this point, remove all
If there is any led strip, case fans etc unplug them.
If this didn't work, get everything outside the cabinet and try with minimal components.

Run some benchmarks and check with similar configs online.
Cinebench R15, R20
Unigen Heaven, Valley, Superposition (for GPU)
PC Mark 10
3d Mark Time Spy, Firestrike (for GPU)
AIDA 64 (Stress test)
AS SSD, Crystaldisk Mark (for ssd)
Use MSI Afterburner or HwInfo64 to monitor the hardware while testing.

Mobo Drivers, BIOS: MSI website
GPU: Nvidia
Any other firmware: from the manufacturer's website.
Use this site to download win 10 pro iso:
TechBench by WZT (v4.1.1)
For drivers,just check MSI site:
Support For B450 TOMAHAWK MAX | Motherboard - The world leader in motherboard design | MSI Global
Don't update the bios if after installing other drivers & OS everything works fine.
