I have just built a new PC and it won't boot at all.

While searching through the computer I can't find anything that looks broken.

When plugged into the the power, a green light on the GPU lights up, but nothing else. When I disconnect the GPU power cord and plug the PC in, the green lights then shows as red.

Processor: AMD FX black edition 8-core

GPU: Asus gtx 750ti

PSU: Strider plus SST-ST50F-P 500W

Mobo: asrock 990fx extreme3

RAM: 8gb DDR3

Case: Nzxt phantom 410
 
Check the simple stuff first, everything is plugged in all the way, reseat everything. Take out everything that's not mandatory and see if you can get anything to boot. CPU/Cooler/1 RAM stick/Video card, see if there's anything. Test the parts in another, working, system. Hope it's all good and maybe just something you missed.
