problem fixed! I don't know how to build PCs...

[Zethial]

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:

 

 

CPU    Intel - Core i7-7700K 4.2GHz Quad-Core Processor

CPU Cooler    Phanteks - PH-TC12DX_BK 68.5 CFM CPU Cooler

Motherboard    Asus - STRIX Z270-E GAMING ATX LGA1151 Motherboard

Memory    Corsair - Vengeance LED 16GB (2 x 8GB) DDR4-3000 Memory

Storage    Samsung - 850 EVO-Series 1TB 2.5" Solid State Drive

Video Card    NVIDIA - GeForce GTX 1080 8GB Founders Edition Video Card

Case    Phanteks - Enthoo EVOLV ATX ATX Mid Tower Case

Power Supply    EVGA - 650W 80+ Gold Certified Semi-Modular ATX Power Supply

Operating System    Microsoft - Windows 10 Home OEM 64-bit

 

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

I didn't see you mention the CPU power cable (4 or perhaps 8 pins).  You'll need that

Did you install the RAM in slots 1&3 or 2&4, rather than 1&2 or 3&4. What happens when you try to turn it on?

Does the PC post and you are just not getting a signal to your monitor? Or is nothing happing at all?

[HunterSkater429]

you need the 4 pin CPU power connector plugged in, it gives power to the CPU without that it won't turn on and fans wont even spin 

 

and never go to geek squad, news stations have done investigations and in most the people just tell you its not fixable or will cost more to fix then its worth then try to sell you a new computer.

 

geek squad is trained in upselling not tech repair.

As everybody else suggested, I got a strong feeling that is the culprit.

I installed the RAM in slots 2 and 4.

I am not getting a signal so I don't know if it is posting (Also I don't know what it takes for it to post).

@Zethial Grab the 4+4 pin cable and plug it in the dedicated slot on the motherboard (that should be in the top left corner area) and try again. Also read the motherboards manual to check which ram slots should be populated first.

What everyone else is saying. Plug in the CPU power cable.

[Ace McPlane]

Yea, it's definitely the CPU power cable needing to be plugged in. You always need to plug that in. Also, that sata cable needs to start at your PSU. I guess your fan hub needs power too but the power needs to come from somewhere right  You also need to plug some more stuff into the mobo than you mentioned. The drives need another cable to go from the mobo to them. You need to plug in your HDaudio cable for your case. Read your mobo manual to see where that goes.

But just to make sure about some other stuff... how about taking a good picture of the inside of your computer and showing us so we can inspect?

Thank you, everyone turns out it was the 4+4 pin cable, I am very glad to see that the community here is super fast at helping, and not to mention smart!
