So I recently bought some parts to make a cheap build that can handle some light gaming 

300w psu don't know what kind 

Only has 20pin 

Q6600 

Motherboard that used to have an extreme core 2 quad on it but didnt work 

Ddr3 8gb of hyperx Kingston ram 

Gtx 750 

Currently rocking some 3 pin cooler 

Wating on a 4pin cpu cooler

The problem is that I turn it on then it turns off and no display

This mobo of yours, whats the make and model? 

 

Without knowing that. You may be facing an issue with the 20 pin, I have seen that cause issues in the past without being an expert on mobo power delivery / distribution, but your described symptom sounds like a power or mobo issue. 

 

I have had Core 2 Quads refusing to boot a variety of boards but working fine on others so it could be incompatible, but thats uncertain without knowing the board. 

 

Your PSU is a Hipro.

Can it be the 24 pin connector?

Your's is 20 pin. You need 24 pin if you want to be able to power the gpu through the pci-e. Also it looks like your cpu fan header is plugged in upside down.

Dam so that why I get not display because my gpu doesn't have enough power because the fan starts

As far as I can tell on the last picture in your first post, you need to lift the pin and turn it 180 degrees and stick it back on the header. 

 

So upside down might seem like a misnomer instead of wrong way round. 

 

The pin has flaps on one side that fit the protrusion on the header, to ensure correct insertion.
