There's no beep code at all, and the motherboard and PSU are completely new now. I'm going to go buy a new processor and RAM cards today to see what else could be the issue. I am just so suprised that everything seems to be dead. Any way to prevent this in the future?

I built my computer about 6 months ago and had no trouble before. This weekend I got a new monitor and set it up and worked perfectly. I rearranged my room and moved my PC over and it would not boot up. Got it checked out and learned the PSU was bad, no problem. Got a new PSU and still would not...

Response time between a tv and monitor mean the same thing. You will notice the response time more on computer applications then on tv and console applications especially after given many hours into it. Someone who only uses computers sparingly or for general use such as web browsing and...

Unfortunately yes, your PSU was fried. Too much voltage from the lighting went into it, purchase a surge protector as well :)

Going for a cost-effective build your on the right track, and I agree with Skoptsy on the adding an after market CPU cooler and the PSU to be fine. However, I personally believe in not skimping out on the CPU to get a decent GPU unless you are truly using your PC as a gaming computer. The 750ti...

Switch to a Z87-A MB and downgrade a bit to a GTX 760 and that's my build so I would love to know if you build it soon how it works out :)

BennyJi, Thanks for your input. Yes, this computer will be a gaming PC. Also for school, movies, and music (though gaming PC should take care of these.) Overclocking will be a future endeavor. 1. Cooling fan will be bought when I do decide to overclock. (Saving more money until then) 2. I...
