I have everything connected in my PC except now all that is needed is the eATX12V plug to connect. I only have 4 6+2-pin connectors, two are used for my GTX 570 and the other two aren't even the right shape for the plug.
My PSU is a Cooler Master GX 750W. I can't find the right 6+2, is this a mistake on the manufacturer's side?

You need to put the two 4 pin connectors together to make it an 8 pin.

I just put in the 4+4-pin. Still won't work. Except that one of the pins isn't the same shape as one of the plugs.Do you have it like in the picture with the two clips on each of the 4pin plugs touching one another in the center?
Yup. Power apparently goes through my mobo, but the PC can't boot. (Dunno if LEDs are supposed to light on the top part of mobo as well, like the bottom part does where the Start and Reset buttons are on ASUS Maximus V Gene).
Nevermind that, there's no LEDs except for there. Could the problem be somewhere else?

Have you tried with only one stick of ram?
Did you get the plug to work correctly?
Also go over all your connections and try booting with one stick of ram, you can also try without your Hard drvie or SSD Sata hooked up and see if it allows you to get in the bio's.
Not booting??? Do you mean no video can not get to bio's or will not boot to OS?
What power button are you using? (Case Or M/B)

Lets break this down a bit.
Have you tried booting with the onboard(HDMI or Display Port) video just to see if you can get the board to post?
See if you can at least get that far.
When in doubt, pull all but one stick of ram and just use the onboard power button(start).
Make sure your 8 pin power is the 4+4 and not the 6+2 type.

No, I bought the parts from newegg. I will have to RMA the motherboard.If you are in a hurry (and have the $), order a new board, and then ask for a refund rather than a replacement on the defective one. I do that for my builds when I get a bad board from Newegg. Otherwise it will take about 2-3 weeks turn around time depending on how you ship.
It's depressing to get your build together only to find the board is bad. But it happens.
Considering the delicate nature of a motherboard, the number of times they have to be handled, and the fact that they have to survive a journey from factory to shipping port, travel across the ocean to be unloaded at another port, survive temperature extremes, then be trucked across country to the retailer, and finally trucked across country again to your destination... it's easy to see how a bad one turns up now and then.

Yeah that was what I wanted to do at first, but I just bought the best motherboard the store had on hand (ASUS P8H77-M/CSM). They are going to build it so I wouldn't make a mistake and then I would FINALLY get my brand new gaming rig after nearly 3 weeks of wait.
