Hi, I just finished building my first pc and when I go to turn it on, the fans slightly spin and stop continuously and the face on the side of my motherboard flashes. The display doesn’t show either. I also hear a clicking noise near my power supply.

  • the led indicator on my gpu is on
  • the motherboard led is not on
  • the power switch works properly
  • my fans are connected to a controller which are connected to the psu

I’m not sure at all what’s the cause of this problem. I think it’s either the psu or the motherboard. Any help at all helps. Thanks
