What is wrong with my computer build?

[Rahul Rajkumar]

My computer build which I completed today goes as follows

i5 3570k
Asus P8Z77-V LE Plus
EVGA 650 ti boost Superclocked
Seagate barracuda 750 Gb sata hdd
WD caviar SE 250gb hdd
Random optical drive
NZXT Phantom Full Tower Chassis
600w corsair builder psu
16gb corsair vengeance ram

I plugged everything in and turned on the psu, I pushed the power button on the case, all the fan leds turned on and started spinning for about a second and then turns off please help!!!! I have no idea what is wrong, I think it might be a weak psu. Opinions?

PSU is fine. Make sure your Memory is seated properly, also remove the CPU and check the pins in the socket and make sure there are no bent ones, if the memory is seated.

It is all seated properly but it still is not working

OKay. I would recheck the CPU then. Make sure you haven't got too much Thermal compound on there as that will cause overheating ( acts as an insulator ). Also check ther pins in the socket as it doesn't take much to bend them.

So you are not even POSTing to the ASUS splash screen? One more thing, did you put ion all of the Stand Offs under the Motherboard?

What is the Asus splash screen

No it is not even booting at all

 

[coastie65]

That would be the first screen you would see at start up and before you see the windows loading screen.

Yes all 9 standoff are under the motherboard

I am not getting to the start screen, my monitor is not even starting at all

 

[coastie65]

Do you see a screen that says ASUS ?

OK. Recheck all the PSU connections to the MOtherboard and make sure they are snugly plugged in, especially the 8 pin CPU connector and 24 pin ATX Connector.
