To summarize, just so I understand everything.

- You have successfully connected your front panel IO.

- You have successfully connected your aio cooler.

- You have successfully connected your motherboards power.

- You have successfully connected your GPU power.

- You have successfully inserted your Ram into the dim slots.

- You have successfully inserted your GPU into the pci slot.

- Your CPU has successfully been installed.

- You have successfully installed your hard drive's power connector.

what you have yet to do.

- Connect the SATA cable to the hard drive and the motherboard. (in progress)

- Install windows.

You'll need one in order to make a Windows install disk.

With the machine off, insert the usb stick in an appropriate port on the motherboard back panel. Depending on settings once you power up, the machine may boot into the Windows installer. Otherwise in the BIOS set the Boot priority.

80+ ratings certify electrical efficiency. Not quality.

I'm glad you got it working, just make sure your case fans are installed and working (if you have them). Start downloading your drivers, head over to the manufactures website, you can find them there.

 

Edit: You should give a 'shout out' to all those patient people that helped (exclude me please). Than post your build in the build thread. I'm sure everyone else would enjoying seeing the progress you made.

This is the kind of thread we need more of. Real world PC issues!

 

I would recommend looking up some build videos on YouTube, they pretty much walked me through all this.

 

I am impressed you did all the hard stuff like CPU, MoBo and all the PSU/case stuff. I found mounting the cooler the hardest.

If the computer doesnt turn on after you put the sata cable in your mainboard then try to remove it and say if the problem persist.With your mainboard you also get sata cables.These are for the HDD and goes into your mainboard.But i dont think that your pc does not turn on because of hdd.It should be something with power supply. Everything looks fine tho when i look to your bios.At this point when you get into bios you want to install windows.You basically go to windows media tool and format windows for usb stick.After that you put the usb go into your bios find your usb name and install the windows.

 

 

Edit : Congrats on your build.Now you want to install windows.Look above i described you how to do it.Do you want to overclock something the cpu or Ram?
