Hey there, I recently finished building my new rig, however it does not want to turn on. It has the 9900K and Z390-A motherboard with a deepcool240L watercooler. When plugging it in the RGB starts up, then once i hit the power button, the CPU cooler, power supply and graphics card all start lighting up. However, none of the fan spins and there is no post or beeping noise coming from the motherboard. I checked for bent pins and could not find anything unusual, as well as re-slotted the memory slots, power cables, and fan cables. Not sure if anyone has any opinions to fix it. Was going to take it back to the store and see if they could do anything.

I bought through Origin a custom laptop MSI GT 60 with 680M and 3740QM back in the winter of 2012. However, after 6 years now my needs have changed and sadly its unable to keep up with it. I am budgeting 2,500$-3,000 CAD all in (taxes+Shipping). I plan on using it at home. I plan on building a desktop and have experience with building it so I do not need to buy a prebuilt unless its a good deal of course. The aim is to have it be a family computer: Note the main OS will be Windows 10 - Be a plex server (usually streaming 2-3 videos at 1080P). (will be plugged into the router, does not need wireless) - Be able to also use vmware and run a second OS (windows 10) for running microsoft office and surfing the web. The goal is instead of having 2 desktops, instead to be able to allow someone else to use the vmware OS with a separate monitor, mouse, keyboard to do work, while someone else can use the main OS for gaming or whatever else. - The third is of course to play games (i do not need 4K 60FPS, but 1080P 60 FPS is a goal for any of the triple A games). There will be 2 1080P monitors hooked up plus the additional 1600x900 for the vmware OS so 3 monitors in total. I have a dell xps 13 from 2017 and usually use teamviewer to remote in to my laptop (which will be the desktop from now on) since I do sometimes have to go away for work for a week or so. Thus, the computer will have long up-times. As you can tell my laptop just isn't able to keep up without having the fan noise on the extreme (despite cleaning it), and just not being able to keep up with my changing demands. I have 2 ASUS VG245H Black 24" monitors so I do not need that. I also have a ROCCAT and Razer mouse so I do not need that, and have a used monitor (1600x900) and logitech keyboard and mouse for the VMware machine. I also already own 2 windows licenses so I do not need any of that. Generally I do not need any peripherals.

I chose Intel since I heard the most about them, but either AMD or intel is fine. It just needs to be able to do the job. Any help is appreciated. Thank you
