hey all

just put together a

MSI gaming AC motherboard
Msi 760 GTX
i5 4670K
Corsair DDR3 1600 Vengence
Silverstone SST-ST45SF-G (450watt)
WD 320gig 2.5 HDD
Lian Li PC30 case


No post Beeps, No Post Screen ,No Display signal on mobo or gfx card even tryed a corsair 650 watt PSU....cleared cmos by removing the battery, cmos button and the jumper method...ive never had a dead mobo out of all the 30+ systems ive built....although someone did mention id have to flash my bios for a particular cpu to run on my Z87...how ever its a 4th gen cpu....any ideas?

UPDATE : i read The Toms Check List Before I posted This...Still No Progress
