So I just bought a new nighthawk 117 full ATX tower and swapped everything over from my Nzxt guardian. Everything worked absolutely fine before the swap now I'm not able to get a full circuit of power through the system. It will show a blink of LEDs the system fans PSU fan and GPU fans will make less than half a turn and all power is lost. Pressing the power button after that does nothing, I have to turn the I/O switch to get it to do that again but it's as far as it will go.
I have all correct standoffs in place (full ATX) and no extras underneath the board. All wiring is connected correctly and in place very well nothing is loose. So I figured that it was a faulty case right out of the box, swapped back to my guardian and viola now it's not working! Doing the same thing as before! I'm thinking I may have fried something by accident (maybe the motherboard) but I was very careful swapping the stuff around, used antistatic bags and everything. I ran all of the test checks taking out graphics card then a stick of RAM etc. Each time I hit the power button though, it does the same thing without a hitch. I am really at a loss here.
Thanks in advance for any help provided. Don't hesitate to tell me the small stupid stuff I didn't think about checking, as anyone can miss a minor detail.
