Building a New System

Hello, 

 

I have started my second gaming build  I have a question regarding my new build. My CPU light stays red when I turn my system on and I don't have a display.  I have tried various troubleshooting problems. removing RAM, checking all the cables, VCARD etc etc. I have also tried using another VCARD AMD RADON R9 from an older build. It's just really annoying me because I had it on my old system and managed to fix it but in this one, I can't fix at all.

Specs 

 

CASE: CORSAIR R270 MID TOWER 

1x ASUS MAXIMUS VIII HERO MOTHERBOARD

1x i7 7700k 4.2ghz

1x CORSAIR H100i V2 LIQUID COOLER

4x 16GB CORSAIR VENGENCE DDR4 RAM

1x ASUS STRIX NVIDIA GTX 970 GPU (SOON MSI 1070 SLI)

2 x WD BLUE 1TB HARD DRIVE 

1x SANDISK 150GB SSD

1x CORSAIR 850x POWER SUPPLY

7x CORSAIR RED LED QUIET EDITION AF120

 

Could someone help me with the problem 

 

Thank you

SOON MSI 1060 SLI

Dude... 1060s CANNOT be put in SLI. They don't even have an SLI connector. Even if they did work, a single 1080 would be better,

 

also how do you have a red RGB fan? then it's just a red LED fan
