I read this post before I began considering asking for help individually

I bought a new Rig and tried the component first with the usual motherboard box.

The Problem is that the motherboard lights up but the power isn't enough to post it seems. (Fans are not spinning and no boot)

Tested the PSU in my other Build and it worked so it has to be a defect motherboard right?

There are 4 components you need to actually get a post.

The Motherboard

The CPU

The RAM

The Power Supply

 

Double check to make sure all connector from the PSU are fit, check DIMM slots to make sure your RAM is completely in, switch out components, and isolate the variable to see which one is causing the problem. The worst that could possibly happen is a dead board while trying to turn on, as this may fry other components also. But that is the worst, and most unlikely to occur

Your Motherboard features a troubleshooting system called Q-LED. If a problem exists with one of the components, e.g. GPU, CPU or RAM. The corresponding LED will light up. The LEDs are labeled on the PCB.This can help identify the culprit. As you mentioned that the motherboard lit up, I assume that one or more of these LEDs were on possibly indicating a issue with the components installed onto the motherboard.

Just The Q-LED for the PWR-Switch is lighting up.

I have connected everything necessary (24 pin ATX, 8 Pin CPU ATX, Cpu Fan, an extra casefan for clearance, the graphic-card LED lit up (switched it with my 960, which is working in my other computer - didn't work either - not even with the onboard graphics)) 

My Ram was properly plugged in and i tried single with all 4 Rams and Duo and Quad usw (the Q-LED for the ram didn't light up either)

 

There is a powerbutton on the Motherboard, but i tried the screwdriver trick anyways didn't make the System work either.

CPU pins aren't bended in any way.

The biggest thing i had a problem with was mounting the 24 Pin - seems to be a common problem with corsair PSU's - had to put more force than usual into it.

 

Any other ideas? :/
