Question New build PC won’t turn on

[lolzfidget]

Hi all,

I’m hoping someone can shed some light on my little predicament! I’m putting together a new PC but it won’t turn on. I’m sure it’s something not plugged in correctly but I’ve checked it three times now and I’m a bit stumped. I checked compatibility on the parts before I bought them so they should be fine but here’s what I have:

PSU: Corsair RM650i (already had and was working fine in my previous build)
Motherboard: Asus B450 F Gaming (brand new)
CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 2700X (brand new)
GPU: Nvidia GTX 1060 (already had and was working fine in my previous build)
RAM: 2 x 4GB DDR4 PC4-19200 288 pin DIMM (brand new)
Storage: Sandisk SSD (already had and was working fine in my previous build)
Case: Thermaltake View 71 TG RGB


I think my problem could be with how I’ve plugged in the front panel sensors on the motherboard but, again, I’ve trawled the internet and have followed what they’ve advised. But I may have misunderstood.

My PC doesn’t make any noise or show any signs of life so I do think it’s something just plugged in the wrong place etc. If anyone could throw any suggestions my way or if they’ve had similar issues I’d be grateful for any tips!

Thanks!

Laura

Does literally nothing happen at all when you press the power button?

Flip the switch on the back of the power supply 😉

Ha, I tried that thanks 😜

Yeah no signs of life at all. But checked the CPU and some pins are bent so I think that could be the problem.

Yes, bent pins could easily be the issue.

Yeah looks like. Old PC is rebuilt and working fine so my money is on the CPU! 🙄 I’ve certainly learned a lot 😂
