i just built my first pc. had been running good then i tried to run prime95 and it crashed instantly.was not overclocked.

i5-4670k

gigabyte z87x ud3h

8 g corsair vengence ram

seasonic 550 gold

noctua u14s

evga geforce 760 oc

the power button on mobo lights up,but the little led # on mobo don't.it acts completely dead. tried reset switchs on mobo,no luck.i'm totally devastated,as this is a brand new build.any help would be greatly appreciated.

































 
Solution
If the CPU overHeated and the mb turned off or the CPU overheat chip kicked in you may have to clear the CMOS jumper to get your system to reboot. Check that the heat sink and paste is on right. The other issue could be the power supply could not handle to output needed on the 12v line and it failed. For a rig like yours you should use a 650 or 750w ps to be safe.
