You try the RAM trick? Take out your RAM rub an eraser on teh leads to displace the any static charge?

Ya. It could be anything but it's mostly likely psu. I'd try one more thing. Try each dimm one at a time. could still be a faulty ram dimm. But yes get a new psu after.

you only have one dimm? then ya go get the psu. if you have two different ram sticks try booting with a single stick. and try both. because one could be faulty and preventing the startup. probably not but check.

I would make sure that all your standoffs are installed correctly and I would take the motherboard out of the case and try to boot it on a motherboard box to see if the case is shorting your computer and causing it not to boot.
