So heres whats happening, the computer with no extra fans plugged in works just fine, (with the exception of the fans connected to the front pannel display, cant unplug those). However with the case fans connected to the motherboard, it wont turn on, with the fans connected to a fan controller connected directly to the PSU the computer wont turn on. The PC according to pcpartpicker.com says its using around 394 Watts, of the 750 watt PSU that I have so I doubting its the power supply. Any thoughts or suggestions?

yeah plug one in, and leave the other out. Tell me if the system works with either one (just one of the two both times)

okay so i think you had the right idea, but it was the fans LED's that were shorting, cause now they all work so long as I dont have the LED's plugged in.... but they are also non responsive to my fan controller.... so a lot of weird things at play here.
