I have everything connected except for the GPU. The computer turned on, all the LEDS lit and fans spinning. I turned it off and uplugged the power. Unboxed the 1070 and installed like I have in all of my other builds. I connected the VGA power and screwed it in place. As soon as I plugged the main power in, a red LED lit on the GPU by the power cables. I tryed turning it on, but the power button created no reaction.

 

Right now its just the CPU, RAM, PSU, and Motherboard. Everything else is detected. I have reseated the cables many times. Pressing the power button creates no reaction. Im concerned somthing is dead. I do not have a mobo speaker to listen to error codes.

Computers r fun

I waited a few minutes and it turned on again. I re-connected everything and it worked. I think the cables came loose from the back of the PSU.
