    Bloodbath91n got a reaction from Ben17 in README: How to respond to a no POST or no power up situation   
    A big thanks to the OP from a newbie for this help thread. Havent built a pc yet about to start in a few days but its good to know if there is a problem i have lots of good info and recources here to utilize.

    My recommendation would be to wait a bit until your budget can fit a 1060 6G or an RX 480/580 (yes, I know stocks are low or nonexistent and prices are ridiculous, but it would be a shame to spend money on a decent build only to have it gimped by an underperforming GPU)

    For a first build it looks good, but I would recommend getting 2 sticks of 4gb of ram for dual channel. And the PSU is pretty cheap. You should get at least a 80+ gold PSU for future reliability. Go to http://www.jonnyguru.com/ for good PSU reviews. Also Haswell is going get pretty old pretty soon. Maybe consider skylake? The R9 390 would be better than the GTX 970. But wait to buy them because of  the drop prices because of the new GPU for AMD and Nvidia.

    Why not Skylake?

    Get this instead, but wait for the rx 480 for $200.
