What are your Specs, and also make sure your 8 pin CPU header is plugged in. Small things like that are easy to forget for first time builders. Also make sure the PSU is in the on mode :P

Maybe plug the PSU in?

Maybe turn on the power switch on the PSU?

Hit the power button on your case?

Usually those are the things I check first if my PC doesn't turn on.
