Hi, I know there are many threads about this but I decided to post my questions more so because of my specific system specs.
I am new to PC building, and attempted to assemble my PC today. After I set up all the wiring and put some of the parts in, I decided to do a test boot. When I first tried, my tower started up and the motherboard and fans were running fine, but I wasn't getting any signal to my monitor. So I turned off the tower and turned it on again, and didn't get any signal on the monitor still. So I hit the power button on the tower, and it didn't turn off but then about 20 seconds later it shut off on its own and when I tried turning it on again it wouldn't turn on. Whenever I turned on the PSU the motherboard would light up, but I still wouldn't be able to turn on the power. I believe it might be because the CPU was getting too hot (no CPU cooler) and that it is preventing the tower from turning on.
Also, after a quick check to the motherboard, I pushed on the ram and heard it click in on the left side. I must've not properly secured the one side of the ram as I thought I did. If anyone may have any answers I would greatly appreciate it. Thankyou in advance.
My system specs are:
Corsair 450D mid tower case
H170 motherboard LGA 1151
Intel I7-6700k 4.0 ghz
1 tb seagate hdd
MSI GeForce GTX 1060 3gb Gddr5
Vengeance LPX DDR4 8gb2400MHz
Corsair CX 750m PSU
Again, I appreciate anyone who takes the times to read this and provide advice.
