i just bought the parts for my pc and someone else put the parts together ,however after having it for about 2 weeks i did an stable oc to 4.0 ghz and 2400nb and adjusted some voltages but never higher than what it was allowed,i have a cheap psu and just 1 stick of ram and after coming from vacations i connected everything again and i noticed that my pc was on with all the fans working but there was no signal t the monitor and mouse and keyboard ,i reset bios settings with the jumper and i have unplugged the psu and after a lot of time it worked,i went to gym and when i came back i tried to change the monitor but i had to turn the pc off a couple of times and now i have the same problem and after spending about 4 hours i havent been able to fix it
Specs:
msi 970A-46G mobo
r9 270x 2gb with boost
maxitech psu 500w
4 gb ram 1333
water cooling
gamemax case with good ventilation
320 ssd
Genius keyboard and mouse and an hp monitor
i tried to connect another mouse and it was on,it had the red ligh and i did the same with keyboadr but nothing is different just a quick light and it turns off,and tried with three different monitors
also there is no beep or light

I would be very surprised if it wasn't the PSU being the problem.

You can play around with whatever, but if I were a betting man, I'd put money on the PSU.

"stable oc to 4.0 ghz and 2400nb and adjusted some voltages"
"i have a cheap psu"

I could be wrong, but I think it died. Cheap ones do that, especially if pushed. Hopefully it didn't kill anything else.

Goto the store and purchase a Corsair, XFX, Antec, or Seasonic 650watt power supply......

Install it, see if your system works again. If not, post back and well try to help isolate what parts the "Cheap" power supply fried when it failed (and they All fail, some badly....)

NOTE: never get a cheap power supply.........

i dont have the money,i used the one that came with the case and when i bought the gpu the guy told me that maybe the gpu wouldnt star because it has low amps or something like that,i really dont know im really new to this and i was trying to see if it could be the ram but i cant remove it because the water cooler is over it and i dont know how to remove it

Simple, MaxiTech is not a good supply. Their rating in of 500watts is not continuous power but the very misleading "Peak Total combined" power.....

I would to the exact math IF I could find the full specification sheet for your supply, but I can't find it....

Basically "Continuous Power" (what you need for gaming) is 1/2 "Peak Power"....

So, MaxiTech is really a 250watt supply, which, is way it would fail..............
