PC SPECS:
Pentium g3258
H81m-p33
Aerocool intergrator 500w psu
4gb kingston value ram
Nvidia gt 610
1tb hdd

all of the parts are new, i put every thing together pressed the power button on my case, nothing happened, checked all the wiring from what the manual said making sure it was all connected yet still nothing, i at first thought it was the power supply, yet when i did the paper clip test the fan kept going without fault. From what i can understand it shouldve worked but as soon as i plug it in the computer again, same thing nothing, i assume its the mobo but i dont want to go out and buy a new one or have to wait for the refund to come through etc just incase

thanks for the reply, i sadly do not have a shop that sells power supplys within reasonable distance, but amazon have a pretty good return policy so i might buy a new power supply and then go from there :)
