I am a first time builder my components are...
Cooler Master Elite 431
ASUS P8Z77 V LX
i5 3570k
GTX 760
Corsair CX600 PSU
Corsair Vengeance 8GB
So I was doing fine with my first build, everything was going smoothly even got my machine to POST and BIOS while breadboarding, even left it running for a couple of minutes to make sure.
I assembled the MOBO, CPU, GPU and RAM outside of the case, everything started up fine full POST and BIOS screen. Then once I put everything inside and tried to start it up I got no boot. I will describe in detail what is happening.
When I turn on my PSU the MOBO's "On" light is green, I can also see other lights on the MOBO, however when I hit the power button on the case OR short the 2 power pins (tried both) my fan spins for a split second then stops. If I wiggle the 24 pin power cable a little bit I can see more fan activity but I don't think the system is booting.
Also get a split second of light from my case when I press the power button, it lasts about as long as the fan spins for....
Anyone have an idea of what is going on?
Or steps I should take to rule out a faulty part?
It's just weird that I got a full POST and everything seemed to be working before I put it in the case.
I have double and triple checked all my wiring, it has been done correctly.
Please help!
