Do you have your CPU power connected?

The OP says the system doesn't power on.

I have no clue what is that

Your eight pin power connector for the CPU. It might say EPS on it.

Its a connector in the top left of your motherboard its either a 4pin or 8pin connector that you have to plug a cable from your power supply into

 not turning on at all but there are lights on the mobo and gpu 

There might be a switch on the power supply that you have to flick

speaker case? currently not speakers are connected

 

yeah everythings flicked on theres even lights on the mobo!

The case speaker is the 2 pin speaker connected to the header on the motherboard near where you connect for the power button, reset button etc.

 

it is really just a buzzer

there is a small weird small buzzing noise once we disconnect everything then connect it and press the power button but after that nothing at all

That is your POST CODE look it up in your mother board manual with everything connected and it should give you an idea of what is wrong,

ok according to the internet it should work fine then. Are you sure the monitor is plugged in, are you using an adapter etc.

the thing just turned on, dont know why it just decided to but it wont detect the monitor, everything is connected. Also the power button on the case doesnt work we have to manually press on the mobo

for the power switch problem double check that you have your front panel connectors connected correctly. For the display, have you tried it with any other computer yet? and What output are you using on the GPU and what is the imput you are using for the monitor.
