Hello all, thanks for taking the time to read this.
So yesterday I built my first computer ever. I followed a guide and had a friend who has done two of his own lend a hand here and there. Everything went smoothly and I was able to finish in a few hours.
When the time came to start up the machine, the computer would not turn on. The case LEDs briefly flash but I don't see anything (including any of the fans) start. Now, I know this is not the first time someone has posted on here and I did my best to follow some steps.

I followed all the applicable trouble shooting steps here with no luck. My hunch is that the power supply is not enough, but I have absolutely no evidence for that.
My specs are as follows:
AMD FX - 6300 Black Edition 3.5 ghz (non overclocked stock fan)
GTX 960
1 TB Hard Drive
4x 120 mm fans
1x optical drive
500 W 80+ psu
Any and all help would be appreciated. Thanks!
