Hi guys,
sorry if im posting in the wrong section, this is my first post.
I got around to buying all the components of my new build;
i5 4690k
Asus Z87-a
antec truepower classic 650 watt
Gigabyte 780 GTX 3gb
Kingston HyperX predator 8gb RAM
put all the parts together, but the system won't start up. so i 'breadboarded' it, to try and figure out what's wrong, and still nothing. When I boot it up I get a 'no signal' on the monitor.
At first, I thought it was a faulty mobo, so i went back to return it, however, the guy tried it at the store on a different cpu and it worked finely. so this ruled out the mobo. Then i tried my cpu on an Gigabyte mobo and an Asrock mobo and none of them worked.
before I go and head back to return my cpu, I want to make sure im not making any noob mistakes, I haven't built a computer in about 2 years and i dont want to make a noob out of myself like i did with the mobo
any ideas?
thanks
