I would check things in this order

Psu is on 

The front panel connectors 

24 pin motherboard cable  

cpu power 

If the fans spin up when you turn it on but you don't get video then I would check the GPU power and make sure it's in all the way and make sure the RAM and CPU is correctly installed.

 

 You can Check if the psu works by connecting the green wire and the black wire in the 24 pin connector with a paperclip and testing it with a voltmeter.
