Well, you need at least some parts like PSU, MB, CPU, RAM and eventually GPU if it's not built in MB and/or CPU. Only like that you can see if it's starting up and to BOOT from and run some Live Linux on a USB to test for rest.

It is called research. Most MB manufactures will list compatible ram and cpus. Follow that list. Other peripherals are generally compatible if current. If something is wrong then you didn't do your research or did not assemble correctly.

Buy everything within the same week.

If you've done your research to buy things that WILL work together (this may involve asking us out here),
and if you've assembled everything correctly,
and if it still does not work....
Then you go through ALL the steps here: http://www.tomshardware.com/forum/261145-31-perform-steps-posting-post-boot-video-problems

If it still does not work, then you may have found a rare DOA part.
