The other day I restarted my computer to find that the power supply, cpu, gpu, cd drive, hard drives, and case fan all spun up properly.
However, I had no power led, usb, or video.
Naturally I removed the gpu and still had no video from integrated graphics, so at this point I either needed to replace the power supply or motherboard. After browsing the forums, I decided to spend a bit of money on a power supply tester, and I didn't have a motherboard speaker so that should be coming in by early next week.
Here's the results of the power supply tester:
-12v: 11.7
+12v2: 12.1
5vSB: 14.9
PG: 330ms
+5v: 5.0
+12v1: 12.1
+3.3v: 3.3
power supply in question is an EVGA 600W 80+ bronze psu

Those results are near perfect. It's not your PSU. :) 
It sounds like the motherboard. Try resetting your CMOS, by removing your battery, and reinserting it. Now is a good time to do it as your PSU is out of the system.
Good luck! Let me know how it goes. :D

You're probably going to have to RMA the board, considering the onboard video doesn't work.
Good luck with everything. :)

If anything, I'm just going to go ahead and get the Asus Z97 board I've been wanting, since I'm going to upgrade to an unlocked Broadwell cpu later anyway. I built the system in April and it the board just died out on me after having no issues befoeet.
