specs:
Mobo - asrock z87e-itx
ram - Kingston HyperX Blu 8GB (1x8 GB Module) 1600MHz
Cpu - i5 4690 3.5Ghz (w/ stock cooler)
psu - SeaSonic G Series SSR-550RM ATX12V / EPS12V
gpu - MSI N250GTS TwinFrozr (reeeaally old haha)
case - Fractal design node 304 (w/ stock case fans)
so just starting off this is my first pc I've ever built. the reason the gpu I'm using is so old is because it was given to me and I just wanted to see if it still worked. so i put the cpu on my mobo, seated the ram and put in the gpu and did my first test boot, there was no noises or video signal detected but after about 5-7 seconds all the fans were spinning.
After reading online for a bit i saw some people said to take out the gpu and try again, to see that was the problem. so i did, and turned on the computer once more but still there was no signal to the monitor, but fans and everything else turned on after a few seconds. then i read to try reseating the ram, so i took out the ram and placed in back in. same result. then i read to try a different ram slot, so i moved it to the other slot. this time when i pressed the power button nothing happened at all. now nothing seems to work and im afraid i shocked some component when moving my case or something! can anyone help me? like i said this is my first time building a pc so im pretty lost right now.
