I am a newbie when it comes to building pcs, this is my first PC build, I hooked everything up hoping for the best and I got a "No Signal" from my monitor. I assume I had everything properly connected but I honestly have no clue now...
I am using the DVI-D cable from my GPU to my Monitor, and I even switched the DVI to my motherboard and nothing happened still. I don't fully know all the cords to my PSU yet but I have a VGA 6+2 pin running from my GPU to the PSU, an ATX 24 pin from the mother board to the PSU, a single SATA cable running from my case fan hub to my SSD (for the SSD I used the SATA cable with both ends straight, I don't know if that has anything to do with... Well anything...) to the PSU, and I didn't know if I needed to add 4+4 pin cable from the motherboard to the PSU, the manual said something about overclocking purposes, so I left that out.
My GPU is in the first slot of the motherboard, SSD is mounted in the back of the case, RAM sticks in the furthest slot from the giant CPU fan, PSU is just kinda hanging out of the case right now, kept all stock fans in.
If all else fails, I will just end up going to best buy for them Geeksquads.
The specs of the PC are:

If there is anything I missed or can answer, I will try my best to get back to it "As Fast As Possible."
