Did that and the battery, no change

Try rebuilding the whole system? When I built my pc I had the same issue, the next day I rebuilt the pc and it worked like a charm. There must be some loose connector. If not, the motherboard is probably faulty.

I just finished building my computer wth the following components:

Asrock A88x Fatal1ty FM2+ motherboard

A10 7890 APU

XFX R7 250 2Gb Video card

32 GB 2400 GSKILL sniper ram 

Corsair Cx500 PSU

 

Put everything together and test booted into Uefi fine.  Shut it down closed everything up and tried again with nothing. No fans or beeps but the power light on the SD drive lights up.  I checked my power supply with the jumper method and it works.  I am thinking motherboard but am not sure since it did boot the first time and the power light for the USB 2 header connected SD drive comes on. 

Any ideas?

Try to reset BIOS by pulling Motherboard battery out and back in.

Also you have to pull the power cable off the wall so this makes any effect.

I guess that's all that is left at this point

Before you do that ^^ try to pull the cable out of the wall and then hold your power on button for 8-10 secs and then try turning it on. Would be really bad luck if you have to build it all over again :/

does your mobo support your ram because you really went overkill on that???

Because that might be the issue, no working ram = not very handy

It is to the best of my knowledge and it did recognize it all when I first booted into UEFI

you didn't change anything with the cables ie. change cable management so the power cables could have been unplugged? maybe the cpu or 24-pins isn't attached properly?

I have nothing, no LED, no POST beeps and no fans. The only reason I have not settled on it being the motherboard is because that SD drive LED comes on but is the only thing connected to the mobo that does.

take every single cable out of your mobo and plug it back in, maybe that works
