I plugged in the 6-pin by mistake with out really thinking and it snapped right in with no force. The Computer didn't turn on or make any noise/smells. I quickly realized that the plug was the problem so I removed it and it turned on. Then I hooked up the two 4 Pins and turn it on again and it started again. All fans are working, light/led on mother board are on. Check for burning on the board doesn't seem to be any marks or smell coming from anything. but the computer won't post an display off the gpu or onboard graphics. Don't know if the messed something up by doing that or if I missed something else. I was right next to it when I first tired turning it on and there was zero sounds or smells It just seems like it grounded it self out.

If it's not doing anything the chances that you killed it are very very high. Might wanna try the take it out of the case and put it on a cardboard box thing and see if you can get any life of it that way. What are the specs?

Ignore PSU side since it's probably different for your PSU. You sent power where there was supposed to be ground. There's a very high chance you fried something.

Should all work together. What rosewill psu? They are usually on the cheaper and crappier side so probably didn't have any form of protection against this built it. Pretty darn high chance the board is fried.

You probably fried the traces on the Board leading to the CPU, the CPU itself, or the plug on the board. Either way, you'll probably have to replace something a bit expensive.
