Newly built pc turns on for 5 sec then off

[Amgzzz]

Specs:

CPU: I5-7600k w/ Hyper evo212

MOBO: Asus Z270-P LGA1151

RAM: gskill aegis DDR4 300mhz 16gb

CASE: Corsair 460x 

PSU: Corsair cx650m 650 watts

HDD: western digital 7200rpm 1TB

 

i put everything together correctly I'm pretty sure , except the hard drive, I didn't put the hard drive in yet. When I turn the computer on, CPU and case fan spins for 5 secs then turns off, and motherboard ram RGB lights are lit. The case had built in stand off's so I don't have to worry about those. I took the cooler off to see if I mis-seated anything but everything looked fine. All these parts are brand new.

 

what could possibly be wrong

That's the reason it powers off after 5 seconds?

I used thermal paste, and what plastic cover. The PSU is naked there's no covering on it, and the cooler if your talking about those stickers, I took them off.

There is a plastic cover on the bottom of the heat sink, where it makes contact with the CPU.

Install the speaker and then listen for the motherboard codes.

i'm letting you know that so that you don't ask questions that are ruled out from the information they give us...... if it turns off after 5 seconds it tends to be a ram or cpu issue or lack of power. also letting him know that it wasn't a troubleshooting step if this happens to him again.  just chill and learn from mistakes.
