Hi guys,
So recently I decided to put together my own PC and - since I had some previous exposure to swapping hardware etc - I thought "how hard can it be?" Well, not as easy as I thought.
I put everything together according to the manual and with help from various guides. Unfortunately, when I try the power button (on the MoBo, not the case) I get absolutely no response (i.e. no PSU fan, no CPU fan, no MoBo error code). I tried taking the MoBo (with CPU + fan + RAM installed) and PSU out, laying them down outside the case, connecting only the 24-pin and 8-pin power cables to the MoBo and giving the Power button another try - absolutely no response. I'm worried either the PSU or MoBo is fried/ damaged in transit.
Any other tips to try before I send it back to the store would be greatly appreciated
Cheers,
Rob

PS. I was attempting to run:
Gigabyte GA-Z87X-UD4H motherboard
Intel i5-4670K CPU
8GB of Corsair Vengeance DDR3 RAM
Corsair AX760 PSU.
