Dear people,

 

I have build a pc and using these things

 

Asus z170 pro gaming motherboard

MSI gtx 970 gaming 4gb twin frozr

NZXT s340 Rzer Edition

WD 1 tb hdd

samsung 850 250gb ssd

Intel Core 6600K 3.5 ghz

Cooler Master Hyper 212 Evo

Kingston HyperX 2x8 gb 

Corsair CX600m

 

I build the pc but it is not working. The lights on the motherboard DO turn on, the fans will probably only turn on when there is heat but i'm not sure about that. Also the razer lights do not turn on at the bottom and the logo in front. Further nothing turns on. Can somebody PLEASE help me I want to use this PC and if its broken that is very bad.

 

Thank you in advance

 

Zebraffe

Will a Corsair 600m not be strong enought to power all of these items in my pc?

also, have you checked that your frontpanel connectors are plugged in correctly?

A 600 watt PSU is more then enough. I can't see it pulling more than 2-300 watts when not overclocked.

My other system (4690k, 960, 8GB 2133, SSD + 2 HDDs, 4 fans, Sabertooth mark 2) only pulls 70 watts from the wall. 110-140 with the screen and speakers.

 

It doesn't matter much, but it's always advised what slots you should use.

 

Do what Magnus said. Check your front panel connectors.

It's not a race to the bottom.

Yes the HDD Led, Power SW, +P led and -P led. But im unsure about their positions

 

unplug all the front panel connectors if you're unsure of their positions and focus on only the power button.

It will be from the top left, the 3rd and 4th pin.

It's not a race to the bottom.

then please consult the manual. I could get you the exact pictures of what to look for, but I think you should learn to find this info yourself
