Computer not powering on

[TechnoTurtle]

First time builder here! I just finished my first PC but when I tried to turn it on, nothing happened. The power supply clicked when I pressed the power button, then clicked again and nothing happened. I tried with two different power supplies (same kind) and the same thing happened. Can anyone help me?

 

Thanks!

check over all of your connections to make sure everything is plugged in correctly. could try clearing the cmos, don't really see this being the issue, but worth trying. after that, i would pull the mobo out of the case, and try running it on the mobo box to rule out a short, either from the case or otherwise.

I’ll try this tomorrow-but I think it probably has something to do with the PSU. Since that’s what made the clicking noise, and nothing even started up.

normally that would be one of my first guesses, but since you tried 2, seems unlikely, but maybe.
