Helping out a friend went through everything multiple times with him and still will not turn on. The motherboard rgb will turn on but fans will not. Here is the spec list. I am unsure of the issue at this point. Only thing I possibly is he is still waiting on the gpu. https://pcpartpicker.com/list/cmwzn7
 
Solution
It should at least power on and turn fans, etc., then as it's looking for some sort of video adapter, give an error and/ or beep code that one is not found...

I'd double with the friend that requisite ATX12V CPU power (at least an 8 pin, possibly even an extra 4 pin) is connected from PSU to mainboard via that PSU's modular cables as specified in the mainboard's instruction manual... (If he is using a new PSU , warn to NOT mix old modular cables from old PSU with a new PSU, which can be disastrous... and expensive)
