Im currently in the process of putting together my firsrt rig, i wanted to make sure everything booted ok before i put my graphics cards in and installed the OS. Problem is that my PC starts up, but after a few seconds it cuts right off and repeats the the same thing over and over

 

My mobo is an ASUS ROG Maximus V Formula, 3770k, 

 

anyone know what to do about this?

I figured out the problem, the 8pin got knocked loose, its all good now

 

It's a common mistake, I've done whilst the system was on ;P

I can only imagine the internal panic this caused haha

 

It was pretty much: Hay! why is my computer off? *looks inside it* Oh, that's why. *facepalms*
