My new build is as follows:
Intel i7-4770K
Asus Maximus VI Hero
Corsair Vengeance 16GB (2x8) 1600mhz CL10
Corsair H110 CPU Cooler
Corsair GS800 (2013 Edition)
Corsair Vengeance C70
Corsair SP120p (x2)
Corsair AF120p (x2)
Corsair AF140q (x2)
WD Caviar Black 1TB/7200 (x2)
Asus DVD/RW (DRW-24B1ST)
Asus Bluray Drive (BC-12B1ST)
1st PC Corp FC-Fanatic-B
Somewhere in a UPS truck:
Corsair Force Series GT 120GB
Asus GTX-660 Ti DirectCU OC
My issues is as follows. The system is fully assembled, aside from the SSD and the GPU which I have not yet received. When the power supply is switched on, the red light track on the motherboard comes on, as does the lighting on the "START" and "RESET" button. The disc trays light, open and close without issue, and the fan controller functions flawlessly.
When I try to power on via the "START" button on the board or the case power button, the PSU lights up and spins, the CPU cooler pump (plugged into CPU_Fan) starts, one radiator fan (plugged into CPU_Opt) spins strongly, and the other radiator fan (plugged into Ch_Fan1) spins very weakly, and the rear exhaust AF120p fan (plugged into Ch_Fan3) does not spin at all. My monitor shows a "No Signal" message from when I try to boot. The motherboard does not beep at all, either to indicate issues or successful POST.
In my basic attempts to troubleshoot I have done the following. I have tested with several monitors/televisions and several different HDMI cables. I have double checked all connections (it is a very clean build). I have (seemingly successfully, according to instructions and LED indicators) flashed the BIOS to the most current offered by ASUS. I have reseated the processor, and cleaned, applied thermal grease to and reseated the cooling block.
I don't want to go any further without some advice from the community. I believe this is a bad motherboard, or possibly a bad processor, but frankly this is my first build in quite some time and I'm not 100% "up" on what current issues could be manifesting in my build.
Anything else I should try before RMA'ing the motherboard, processor, or both?
