Grab the manual & find the "Clear CMOS" section... do that & reboot.

I found the CMOS battery, but no section on how to clear the CMOS

Turn all the power off & short those two pins - above the Front Panel pins, as mentioned above - the restart as it says, above.

Stupid question, did you also unplug the power cord?

 

Just to get rid of even more variables, can you try using only one stick of memory? I think the second slot away from the CPU should be the correct one to install it in, but you might want to consult your manual.

Then you will have to slowly accept the fact, that some of your parts might have been DOA.

 

You could try to flash a new bios (just to see if it works, I doubt it would help in your current situation), by taking out all the components and using gigabyte Qflash.

While doing that, you can check whether any of the pins in the CPU socket are bend.

 

You can also try starting your PC without the GPU installed. Maybe it is shorting or triggering something.

 

I'm actually quite interested why you picked the part you did. Or did you just have some of them lying around?

Basically yeah most of it was lying around, they were free parts from a company that had no use for them, or they ordered too many

you probably have a dead board ...

Just took a glance through the thread after seeing your other post.
Assuming you've done everything in the linked troubleshooting guide and followed the advice given to you, then there isn't much else we can help you with.

Your next options are if you have anybody that has compatible parts they'd be willing to allow you to test your parts with to find what is the problem then that'll help you narrow down if/what component(s) are dead. One of your coworkers for example you mentioned likely has a compatible board; so you could try your CPU in theirs along with their GPU; does it work? Then CPU is not the issue. Now swap in your GPU, still work? It's not your GPU. etc... just through process of elimination and swapping you should be able to pin down which is the bad part and then you just have to start an RMA process with the company, or get an exchange if possible through the retailer it was purchased from.

If you can't do that and you had to take a guess, well I suppose I'd start an RMA on the motherboard and go from there.

Seems you just had crap luck and have a dead component somewhere in the mix, it can happen.

Alright. That is sad for you, but at least it wasn't any part without warranty.

Next time, build the PC outside the box first. And if you have any questions, feel free to ask again.
