Can only boot via test button *noob*

Hey guys, I've recently purchased some new parts for a new gaming PC as my old one has finally packed in.

After much stress I've managed to get everything connected (I'm assuming right) and have power. If I use the typical power switch the PC boots up, fans and LEDs kick in. The monitor however flickers between digital and analogue (DVI) and eventually the screen goes off and about 10 seconds later the PC shuts off and tries once more.

If I press the test button and load into the bios and select either my SSD or HDD (only is plugged in at this stage and I've installed windows to both as I thought there was a separate issue with the SSD) the PC loads up. I've downloaded my drivers, and updated my graphics card (note I am using a compatible 760 from my old build and this is with high end 2016 equipment) however when I try to update windows or a driver my PC searches for eternity.

Can someone please point me in the right direction (in simple terms) or give me some troubleshooting as to how I can boot my PC normally rather than through the test button.

My new build is as follows:

Asus Rampage V Edition 10 Intel X99 (Socket 2011) DDR4 EATX Motherboard

Intel i7-5820K 3.30GHz (Haswell-E) Socket LGA2011-V3 Processor - Retail (BX80648I75820K)

Gainward GTX 760 Phantom

Corsair HX1000i Platinum

Seagate BarraCuda 2TB 7200RPM SATA 6Gb/s 64MB Cache HDD - OEM (ST2000DM006)

Corsair Vengeance LPX 32GB (4x8GB) DDR4 PC4-19200C16 2400MHz Quad Channel Kit - Black (CMK32GX4M4A2400C16)

Samsung Evoi 850 SSD

Noctua NH-D15 Dual Radiator Quiet CPU Cooler with two NH-A15 Fans

NZXT Phantom Enthusiast

Thanks!

Update.

So from off I press the power button, my screen stays idle,LED4 on the PCIe lane switch flashes orange (nothing connected here my GFX is in 2). And c and d on the DRAM lane switch. I have the ram all on the same side 4 in a row and 4 empty slots on the other side. I changed to 2 on one side and 2 on the other side and the lights changed to B and D flashing.

If I press memory ok I get the option to boot into safe mode or normally. If I choose normally the screen stays blank.

Put all the ram in grey and all 4 lights were orange. Changed them all to black and none are orange yet an alarm is going off and I'm getting error 53 which is memeory intialization error. Invalid memory type or incompatible memory speed. LED 4 on the PCI is still flashing
