All power cables plugged in to proper places and fully inserted? (Motherboard power, graphics card power, memory properly seated, no pinched wires? Power and reset headers correct? Etc. Etc.

 

It also helps to have specs on all components as well.........

Check from panel connectors, and make sure your connections to your graphics card is secure. The first thing I would do is secure every single cable in my build
