What do you mean by "it turns on and runs"? What comes on? Fans, LEDs, ect. Try it without the HDD, and clearing the CMOS might help...

Whats up with the 7950GX2? You bought that new? Why not an 8800gts or 8800gtx?

Pull out everything, except the CPU.

Be sure there is a PC speaker hooked up. Test to see if you get any bios beeps.

If there's no beep:

There's no speaker hooked up
Possible MB or CPU problem
Possible MB bios doesn't have support for the 4800+

Also try running the MB out the PC case, on cardboard box, to rule out any short happening to the MB.
