wont turn on

[TRCornishboy]

MY friends just got a new pc, the bugger wont turn on...

 

It's a Asus P8Z77-VLX with a 3350P Radeon 5970. With a Bequit powersupply.

 

Theres an LED that lights up on hte motherboard which means its receiving power? but it wont turn on, we're desperate right now? Any ideas? Tried the case button and the old scredriver trick but we've had no luck whatseover.

Make sure your 8pin and 24pin connectors are all snug.

530w might be border line especially with the Gpu

Straight from the AMD website, the power requirements for your GPU:

 

• 650 Watt or greater power supply one 75W 6-pin and one 150W 8-pin PCI Express® power connectors recommended (850 Watt with two 75W 6-pin and two 150W 8-pin connectors for ATI CrossFireX™ technology in dual mode)

You dont have enough power.  New PSU or more efficient card.

you got it above there man.

Id say its a cheap psu it could 530 watt peak. so can be a 450 watt psu. id say upgrade psu. to like a corsair tx750. and run card off that. i would change gpu to since its weak gpu and its a power hog. he would be better off with like 650ti or 750ti

Completely reconnect all power/data cables. Start back from square one.

Been done pal. I'm starting to think it's a D.O.A, but then why's the light coming on? If its not that is it the single fan cable that's broken that could be stopping it all?

On another note, the RAM and 5870 are working fine in my PC, despite a lot of GPU noise... What's it looking like now?
