I am new to building PC's and I apologize for any simple mistakes or answers. (Please note I have already gone through the no POST checklist) Here is my build.
GPU: Sapphire Radeon R9 280x OC 3GB
Mobo: Gigabyte AM3+ AMD DDR3 1333 760G 78LMT-USB3
CPU: AMD FX-6300 FX-Series 6-Core Black Edition
RAM: Crucial Ballistix Sport 8GB Kit (4GBx2) DDR3
Hard Drive: Seagate Barracuda 1 TB HDD SATA 6 Gb/s
Power Supply: EVGA 600B 80PLUS Bronze Certified ATX12V/EPS12V Active PFC 600W
I put everything together outside of my case and when I turned it on, there was no beep and no light that came on. I think the beep is caused by the fact that I don't have a speaker on my front panel header but I do have an F-Audio cord so I am not sure. I have no idea why the light will not come on as I have ensured everything is plugged into the right spot. When I plugged the computer into the monitor nothing would show up. I had it plugged in only at the motherboard, not the GPU. Do I have a defective or shorted motherboard? All of the fans run smoothly and consistently so I don't believe it is my PSU. Thanks
