PSU turned on?

[MrJarhead]

did you plug all the power pins in etc, power led, power, reset. if you havent nothing will happen when you press the power button.

 

these: they need to be plugged in correctly.

read what i put, if you tried a different psu, its most likely you havent done that properly or the cpu or motherboard is dead.

take them all out and just put the power sw in. if your power sw has a + and - side, make sure its in the correct orientation.

 

the best way to tell if its the psu is do this http://www.wikihow.com/Check-a-Power-Supply

 

WARNING: if you do the paper clip method, please do not touch it while its powered on, it will shock you and seriously hurt you.

 

my psu came with a psu tester, yours might have too.

[MrJarhead]

No it did nothing it acts like the motherboard is not getting power at all even though all the wires are all plugged in a double checked them a couple of times

if it did nothing then the psu is dead...

 

thats the whole point of the test, are you sure youre not flicking the switch on the back of the psu? which psu have you tried.

tbh with you it sounds like the cpu or motherboard is dead.

Ok is there a way to confirm that's it could be the motherboard and CPU

try the cpu in another motherboard, did you take the cpu out of the motherboard when you swapped cases?

I don't have another motherboard to try it in and no I just swapped the motherboard with everything on it

did you make sure that the motherboard stand offs were in the case? if you havent put the motherboard on the stand offs, likely would have shorted it.
