New custom built PC powers on for 1 minute then proceeds to beep 5 long beeps and restarts to do the same thing.

This is my very first build so please bare with me if I don't sound intelligent on this topic. I recently built this PC and the above title keeps happening. All parts are brand new right out of their boxes and wrappings. Cables are tight and set in correctly. RAM is set in tightly. Mobo, GPU, CPU cooler, and LEDs light up when powered on. Fans are spinning when powered on. Also the mobo doesn't detect any of my peripherals.


My Specs:

CPU - Intel Core i7-6700K 4.0GHz Quad-Core

CPU Cooler - Corsair H100i v2 70.7 CFM

GPU - Asus Radeon RX 470 4GB STRIX

Motherboard - Gigabyte GA-H170M-D3H Micro ATX LGA1151

RAM - G.Skill Ripjaws V Series 16GB (2 x 8GB) DDR4-2400

Primary Storage - A-Data Premier Pro SP600 128GB 2.5" Solid State Drive

Secondary Storage - Western Digital Caviar Blue 1TB 3.5" 7200RPM Internal Hard Drive

PSU - EVGA SuperNOVA G2 650W 80+ Gold Certified Fully-Modular ATX

Case - NZXT Phantom (Black/Green) ATX Full Tower




Things I've tried (from reading forums and other things on the web) and still gotten same results:

- Stripped my PC to the bare minimum (Mobo, CPU, CPU cooler, PSU, RAM, Power switch) and then doing all the things below.

- Resetting my CMOS with the method from my mobo

- Resetting my RAM sticks by trying all possible configurations with both 1 or 2 sticks.

- Resetting my CPU and redoing thermal paste

- Looking at the golden pins on the mobo for any bent ones. Didn't find any bent pins.


I understand that after doing all this my problem may be from defective hardware. I'm thinking it's either my mobo, CPU, or RAM sticks that is defective. Maybe all of them are. I'm wondering if there is anyway to pinpoint the problem without having to drop more bills to get replacements seeing that I dont have much more spending money.

Please give me any insight on this matter. All help is much appreciated. I'm dying to get this running by the time Gears 4 comes out.

Can you test different CPU cooler? If not, try connecting the pump and a radiator fan to case fan headers and a radiator fan s to the CPU_fan header.

Can't use any replacement parts sadly. Just tried your suggestion with moving those connections, didn't work. I really doubt it's my CPU cooler causing the problem since I also tried booting without the cooler which resulted in the same result as the title.
