About two months ago, my PC's motherboard shorted out and so did my processor.
After replacing both, I've gotten my computer running again, how ever now I have absolutely no audio. My device manager shows it sending a audio signal, but I'm getting nothing from either my speakers or headset.
Should I reformat my hard drive, reinstall windows, or am I looking at a hardware problem?
My face right now
Obvious question: did you update all the MB drivers? Did you bother reinstalling Windows (not strictly necessary)?

Yes I install all of my motherboards new drivers

Sorry I should have mentioned I also updated to windows 8.1. I also apologize for my retarded English.

Your English is perfectly fine. But some constructive criticism: more people making requests should provide info about what they've done and tried. Otherwise you get endless "Did you try this?" questions.
Anyway. Did you do a clean install? Common wisdom is to not upgrade a Windows in place, but wipe it clean and start over.

Modern PCs have hot-swap audio ports, where each port becomes a mic or a speaker or a headphone port, depending on what's plugged into it.
If you've got the front-panel audio connected wrong, it'll look like headphones are is plugged into it, and the PC will switch to it and mute the speakers in the back.

Adding to this.
Presuming OP plugged in the (7 pin?) HD Audio cable from the case to the MOBO if he's using front audio jacks?

I'm thinking reformating and reinstalling is what I should do. My 10 gigs or trap dojins will have to go ;_;
Thanks mate.

OP you not got a removable disk you could back those up to?
Or just backup to Google Drive or Onedrive for free.

Acquire a cheap HDD for storage. I got a 500GB, but I'm not a hoarder.
