Maybe you broke something during this awesome cable management job?

Have you tried isolating the problem?

So I did.some cable management and now my pc.wont boot up no power what do ever it had a new gpu and a new power supply any ideas??? 

 

stellar cable management job!

 

did you switch the psu on?

 

did you plug everything in?

 

is your psu modular or not?

 

if its modular, make sure everything is properly inserted.

 

psu = powersupply

Are any of the cables preventing the CPU cooler fan from spinning?  Do you have any error lights or messages?  Did you check to cable connections to make sure they are fully connected and in the right location?  What are your system specs?

Is this a "spot the problem" challenge, where you know what's wrong and want us to see if we can find it? I think there's a 4 pin CPU power cable hanging free on that image.

probably for his gpu?

4 pin doesn't go to GPU

If you follow the cable, there is a 2nd one bundled with it and does go off to a 4 pin header that you can see in the north west corner of the CPU cooler on the image.

It sounds like a power cable isn't plugged in, if you're not getting any signs of life at all then most likely the motherboard 24pin. Also make sure the power supply switch on the back of the power supply unit is turned on as well as turned on at the wall outlet.

 

Can you post a photo of the system after you did cable management that way we can see if there might be anything that isn't plugged in properly.

No no that's a old photo of how it was yes everything is plugged in properly everything nothing is stopping the cpu fan I have tried but it literally dosent power on i have no clue what the go is I tried consulting the manual I am getting a new mother board cpu and 32gb of ddr4 ram

So you have plugged in:

- Motherboard, CPU, cooler

- PSU, with the 24 pin and 8 pin in the motherboard, possibly some cable(s) in your GPU, SATA cables are not necessary to get it to startup. 

 

Have you alternatively tried the PSU paperclip test, or simply swapped back to your old PSU (since that worked before the upgrade)

If there is no action at all in the system (as you in you press the power button an nothing happens), it probably has something to do with:

- Motherboard (24 pin, RAM or CPU perhaps)

- PSU (could be dead, could not be powering up, could have its switch on the back set to 'off')

- Case (power button could be improperly wired up)

I tried a few things it boots up then turns off th gpuis out I think it's dead so I'm getting it replaced tomoz but I haven't tried the paperclip test the power supply is brand new but can get that replaced no issue idk what's up...

An easy mistake to make! For some reason. 

I  rebuild my PC like 4 times the other day (issues with NZXT case and switching out mobos / CPUs) and one time it just wouldn't boot... 

 

When I finally figured out the issue and plugged the CPU power in the PC still wouldn't boot! Turns out it was the new RAM and I had to reset BIOS despite the super duper debug LEDs of my MSI mobo still showing "CPU"

Before you do anything please post a picture of your PC how it does look now and make sure we can see the whole thing,  just make a full frontal picture including the whole case,  it's easier to figure out what might be wrong that way
