I went through the build checklist already and am thinking the MoBo is bad. The PSU works, I tested it out in my current computer and it booted fine.

Any help is appreciated, this is only my 2nd build and it is for my friend, so I am feeling really bad that it I couldn't get it done asap :(

Thanks in advance guys.

Took apart the whole thing and rebuilt it from step 1, got everything working fine. Only thing I can think that might have been wrong was I seated the CPU incorrectly, but I dunno.

Thanks anyway guys :)
