So i had this computer for about 2 years and i recently upgraded the motherboard, cpu and graphics card. The build is: i7 6700, Evga gtx1070, gigabyte h170-gaming 3 motherboard , 8gb ddr4 hyper x RAM, thermaltake 700w psu and phantom 410 case. I previosly had it running but nkw i just cant seem to get power to any of the components. I have a feeling its either a wiring issue or something went wrong in the power supply. Please help, any suggestions are much appreciated.

Heres a link to a video of the computer in case u wanted to see it visually.

You may have gotten a DOA component.
On the new motherboard, try to run the old GPU. If it works, you had a bad GPU, return it for a new one.
Depending on what you upgraded from, try the old CPU in the new motherboard. If it works after that, you got a DOA CPU. If everything works inthe old motherboard, which seems most likely to me because nothing powers on at all, you got a DOA motherboard.
If all of those fail, it's your PSU, but I feel it's your motherboard.
