So im kinda new to the whole custom pc thing, I had already had the case and psu before I finally got the rest of the components. When I got all the parts ready I started to assemble, I was wearing an anti-static wrist strap during assembly. Once I had it fully assembled, I TRIPLE checked if I put the cables in the right spots I pushed the power button, the fans were spinning and the LED's on the motherboard were lit, but nothing showed up on the monitor, after that every looked like it just gave up and turned off. PLEASE HELP!!!

Components:
Intel Core i7-4790K 4.0GHz Quad-Core Processor
Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO CPU Cooler
Gigabyte GA-Z97X-Gaming 5 ATX LGA1150 Motherboard
Corsair Vengeance Pro 16GB (2 x 8GB) DDR3-1866 Memory
Samsung 850 EVO-Series 250GB 2.5" Solid State Drive
Western Digital Caviar Blue 1TB 3.5" 7200RPM Internal Hard Drive
Corsair 750D ATX Full Tower Case
Asus DRW-24B1ST/BLK/B/AS DVD/CD Writer
Corsair RM 850W 80+ Gold Certified Fully-Modular ATX Power Supply

You seem to have installed rather high end components, so a fault with them is highly unlikely, but I wouldn't rule out any of the components completely. It could be that your CPU is DOA, which isn't unheard of but unlikely. The issue could also lie with your connecting cables to your monitor. Try shortening the distance between your system and your monitor/using a different cable. I know it sounds obvious but make sure that your monitor is on and connected to the channel that your cable is plugged into.
It might be worth testing that CPU. I know it's bad practice, but if you take the cooler off and put your finger on the surface of the CPU for a few seconds after it comes on and it gets hot relatively quickly, it might be alive. Make sure it's seated correctly on your board, also. No force should be applied until you pull down the lever to secure it, it should just fall into place.

Unplug everything and make it just barebone. Meaning, only 1 RAM, no discrete GPU, no SATA disks.

On UEFI reset it to factory settings. Save, and turn it off. Now find CMOS reset, and reset it. Another easier way would be unplug and place the battery back again. Then connect everything back together. GPU, disks, RAM sticks, all of it. Turn it on and let the motherboard recognizes every single device you plug into it as if it's like its first time. Enter UEFI again to make sure everything recognized, then boot the OS.

Then tell us how it goes from there.
