Hey Guys,
yesterday i assembled my very first PC. When i tried to power it up some dirfferent lights turn on. Now to the problem: The PC won't turn on. So far i made a 100% sure that my front io is connected correctly to my mobo. Things that light up: RGB lighting of mobo, white light of HUE+ box, two status LED's at the graphics card and one orange on the mobo close to a fan header in the upper right corner.Jump Starting doesnt work.
My System Specs:
Intel Core i7 700k, Asus Strix z270e gaming, Gtx 1080 Strix oc, be quiet straight power 10 600w 80+ gold, G.Skill Triden z RGB ddr4 ram 3200 MHz, NZXT Kraken X62, Samsug 960 evo, Samsung 850 pro, 2tb WD black and some Hue+ stuf.

Thanks in advance!

Your power supply seems to be a split rail design with 4 rails on the +12v splitting and limiting the available power. The symptoms you are describing can be a symptom of insufficient power. Your rail 3 and 4 are listed as the highest but only provide 20A. The GTX 1080 puts you well above that. Would suggest getting a good quality power supply with a single +12v rail. A good quality 650W power supply like a seasonic (of a single +12v rail variety...they do make split rail designs) should probably be able to hit 54A or more on the +12v.

Thanks for your support guys. I found the Problem and the PC is now working. As a stupid newbie i used a 6+2 pin connector for the CPU instead of the 12v 4+4 pin connector. So it was just my stupidity. Thanks anyways and have a good day!
