I just built a desktop and after a smooth installation, i hooked it up to a monitor to test if it was working. The computer didn't post, but everything ran smoothly, and all fans were on and the led's were lit. After checking the cables, i realized i hadn't plugged the cpu cable in, and when i tried turning it on a second time, the fans whirred for about 30 seconds, after which the gpu fans died down and the rest of the computer shut off completely 10 seconds later, afterwhich the fans would pick up again as soon as the others died. I unplugged the cpu from the psu, and the problem stopped, but the cpu had no power and the computer wouldn't post. it seemed to be a psu problem, so i replaced the PSU with a brand new one and the issue persisted. I'll post specs below, but i have NO idea what is wrong. Installation went smoothly, and the PSU is big enough to accomodate the parts. I was wearing an anti static wristband and working on a rubber surface, so static shouldn't be the issue. All power cords are were they should be. Any ideas?
