so i built a new system and when i've got no gpu, 1 stick of ram my ssd and the cpu plugged in the post screen stops on the splash screen of asus.
once i insert my gtx 970 it get past that but then goes to black...
can anyone think what the issue is, i've different ram sockets and changing the sata connections and checking all the cable and still the same issue.
