If you suspect that there's something wrong with PSU, try powering ONLY the PSU, without the rest of the system.

 

U are gonna need a wire and connect it in the right holes on motherboard power cable.

Could be a possible dead motherboard or power supply. Just in case make sure the front panel wires are in your motherboaed and just take every wire out snd put it back in.

As above, test the power supply with a paper clip or piece of wire. Connect the green cable to any of the black cables on the 24 pin connector and turn the psu on. If the fan does not spin then the psu is more than likely dead

So PSU does not turn on? It does not spin the fan? Is it by any chance one of those silent PSUs that doesn't run the fan unless it's under heavy load?

Sounds alot like the PSU is dead. Do as bammers said and if it does nothing try another PSU.

Looks like it is one of the psu's that stays silent until under load, however there should be a switch on the psu to turn off Eco Mode then the fan should spin whether under load or not. Failing that as intelCore says does the OP have another psu to try?
