MY BUILD:
Phantek’s Luxe Case-
Seasonic 1050 W PSU- Snow White-
Asus Sabertooth 990fx r 2.0-
AMD FX-8350 Black Edition Vishera 8-Core 4.0GHz-
Thermal Grease- Gelid GC- Extreme
Swiftech 240-X Cooler
HyperX Fury White Series 32GB (4 x 8GB)
ASUS Strix GeForce GTX 970- X 2
Western Digital WD VelociRaptor 1TB hard Drives- X 5
Noctua NF-A14 industrialPPC-2000rpm- X 7
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Trying to figure out what is going on, process of elimination of what is wrong or what am I missing or doing wrong. I have built many systems and never had this problem before.
Brand new build, all brand new parts- (see spec above): I Installed everything, went to push the power on button and nothing no power/any power at all.
I rechecked and triple checked all the connections making sure everything was right and secure and still no power. While I have no power to turn the PC on I do in fact see a green light on the motherboard indicating power and I see white lights coming from the video cards.
From what I know and saw in the book; The green lite that is lighting up on the motherboard is from the onboard led sb_pwr (standby power) it is a reminder you should shut down the pc before removing any parts.
The video cards light LED light is white it says in the book you have the power cable completely plugged in and it is feeding the card power properly.
I believe that means the motherboard is getting the power from the PSU. Correct? If so then the motherboard is not the problem….
Then after about 3 hours and about the 30th time of no power the system finally came on!
Everything worked fans, cpu cooler, the lighting of the case and everything worked so I left the system on for a few minutes looking at the temps etc. everything looked good and I powered the system down so I could add a dvd drive to install the OS disk and driver disks etc. and when I went to power it back on and nothing again!
20 more times nothing and repeated checking all connections nothing.
At that point I tried some of the individual parts the PSU in another system under full load perfect. The PSU and 7 fans with fan controller and all 5 hard drives all worked fine perfect.
I am thinking it might be the power button and the led lighting on the case not sure but what do you think?
Out of 50 times trying to power it on only once after the 30 to 40th time did it actually come on and every time I do get the lights on, on the motherboard and the graphics cards. So again I am thinking maybe it is the tower itself.
