Hello everyone,
This is my first attempt building a PC for gaming. Ive watched numerous videos on youtube to knowledge myself on the steps. This is my parts list:
-Intel 8th gen core i5-8600k
-Gigabyte z370p d3
-EVGA GeForce gtx 1060 6 gb ssc
-EVGA 650 BQ 80+ bronze semi modular
-Cooler master hyper 212 LED turbo
-Corsair Vengeance LPX 8gb (2x4gb) ddr4 3000MHz
-WD blue 1 tb sata hard drive
-Crucial MX500 500gb
All items were purchased from amazon.
I set everything up following Joey Delgado steps since he used the same case as I. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uZcQG3Cqq1A
So after my whole set up and 9 hours of work, i decided to test my system and boom, nothing. Like nothing happened at all. No lights, no fans...nothing. So I started troubleshooting and started with the power supply. I had the tester for it and when i tried it, the fans spun on the power supply telling me that part was working. So then i assumed it was a mother board issue and got it exchanged for another one from amazon.
Set everything back up with the exchanged motherboard and...NOTHING. Same problem happened. No lights, no fans spinning. Not even the power supplys fan were spinning. So I ran the test again (synonymous to the pin test) and the power supplys fan ran then. So then i went and switched up the ram slots and tried without the GPU installed but that lead me no where.
Im completely lost. Now im thinking its not the mother board thats the problem. But its not receiving any power from the power supply. I have everything plugged in right and completely. So now im thinking I dont have the right power supply cause in the video Joey used a EVGA 500W semi modular while i used a 650W one. Either that or theres a switch on the motherboard to turn it on but i dont know where that would be located. I really dont have any direction right now so would anyone be able to help me out? It would be greatly appreciated!!
