This is my first build ive put together and it will not start.
MoBo: Asus Sabretooth Z77
Chassis: Cooler master elite 430
Graphics card: Asus GTX560 Ti with DirectCUII Thermal Solution
Hard drive: 1TB seagate barracuda
CPU: Intel i5 3.1GHz quadcore
DVDRW drive: Samsung SH-222
PSU: Corsair CX 600W
First time i turned it on the fans started spinning and the LEDs lit up but nothing came on screen and after a couple of seconds it shut down, only to then turn on again like the first time, then die like before, repeating this pattern. I realized that my CPU wasnt connected to the PSU and so i corrected this and tried again, this time nothing happened.
I am pretty damn sure i connected everything properly, and i seriously doubt anything short-circuited during the building process. The only reason for not turning on that i can think of is that the PSU is too weak. Is it?
