Angry 5 beeps no boot or video. New Computer

I just received this computer. I have an Asus P5ND2-SLI motherboard. It beeps five times and I get no video. Everything (monitor, cables, and computer) is new and I don't have back ups to check it with. Beeps seems to be 2 beeps in quick succession then 3 more quick beeps. I've tried removing the RAM and reinserting, taking out non essentials, checking connections etc. All fans and HDD seems to work and make noise. Please help

To check the components, it would be handy if you could swap them into another machine. But, to be honest, with 5 quick beeps it sounds like CPU failure to me - but I would rather check put the components first.
