Hi all,
Second build, plugged it all together but when i power it up the cpu fan works for about 1-2 second before stopping and then a continuous short beep starts. Before anyone asks the 20+4 power connector and the other 8 pin power connector is in. I've tried without anything other than the cpu/memory plugged in and without the memory/1 stick and it still does the same.

Standoffs are in as well.

Any ideas?

Intel Core i5 3470
Corsair 8GB (2X4GB) DDR3 1600Mhz Vengeance Blue
G7 Power Extreme 780W

I would give the cpu a check, make sure its in properly and no bent pins and that the heatsink is on securely with some suitable thermal compound.
