I've got a brand new Gigabyte 970A-DS3p with AMD FX 8350 CPU, 32 GByte RAM and Radeon R7 260X graphics card. DVD is connected to SATA 0, and SSD-disk to SATA 1. When powered on, fans (CPU/Graphics/chassie) are starting, but nothing more. No beep, no nothing. I have no connector on the ATX 12V on mobo. Could this bee the problem ?
Boot problem with Gigabyte 970A-DS3p + AMD FX 8350 CPU
- Thread starter ovest
- Start date
As I understand it, the 4-pin ATX 12V should be used if the PSU has an older 20-pin main connector, In my case the PSU has the new ATX v2.3 and provides power through the 24-pin connector, and the 4 pin ATX12V need not be used, see http://compreviews.about.com/od/cases/a/ATX12VvATX.htm
so my problem remains, no boot, no beep, no video
more suggestions pls

"and the 4 pin ATX12V need not be used" - that is wrong.
Both need connected:
1.1 x 24-pin ATX main power connector
2.1 x 4-pin ATX 12V power connector
Your power supply may have a 4+4 connector that can be split. See figure 11:

Without that connected the CPU is not receiving any electrical power.

Should be enough power, make sure both power connections to the mobo are snug, if problems continue, would drop and start with 1 stick of DRAM, 32GB may and probably does need additional voltage to bothe the DRAM and the CPU/NB (your MC (memory controller) voltage)
