it's your PSU most likely,

nvidia's PSU req for the 295 is a 680w PSU with 46A on the 12v rail.

You also have the blue light?
Green light = display correctly attached
Blue light = proper power connections attached

Your Corair 620HX has 50amps of +12V power so I think you have enough power for your GTX 295 and the rest of your system.

Is your motherboard POSTing? And as WR2 says, I'd re-check power connections. Also, try to get it to boot with an older card. Have you installed OS yet?

Do you have BOTH PSU-> MB power cables plugged into the motherboard? 24pin and 8 pin?
