Ok so i just finished building my new computer but every time i go to turn it on nothing happens but this blue flash near the front which looks like its coming from the front fan :/.. I have no idea whats wrong with it and the build to me seemed to go quite smoothly

As above, specs are needed.

You sure the cables are in correctly? 20+4 or 24 pins in (depending on mobo and psu)
 
Check all power connectors including the 4 or 8 pin for cpu power.
Memory in the correct slots - did this on my build.

Try a CMOS reset.
 
You got a graphics card in that system? Or using onboard?

EDIT: Dont think the Titan Fenrir fits AM3 - but could be wrong.
 
Yeah i have a graphics card, checked all the power cables seem to be fine.. whats the difference bewtween 20+4 and 24? surely there the same :/..

Titan fits fine i think, but the case fans on the side panel will have to be removed..
 
Hmmm,did you use the stand off's when you installed the motherboard?ie,you didnt just screw the motherboard to the case,you screwed into the little brass standoff's?

Click to expand...

That would have been my first question too. If you don't do this, you could be shorting out the motherboard against the case, which is bad news.
 
Well,the next thing i would try would be..try booting with 1 stick of ram(in the socket closest to the cpu)if that doesnt work,try it with the other stick...reseat the graphics card,and double check all connections,power and sata....just noticed...what PSU are you using?
 
on screen tying ftl... i don't really know myself i just unplugged one of the cables for a fan i think it was and it worked. (all fans still work) only problem i have now is that the fans on the side panel won't fit because thecfenir is tooo bigv so im left with decision of leaving the side partially off, swap the fenir or take the fans off the side panel
 
Take the fan off the side panel,the fenrir is an awesome cooler...you could always put the fan back on the panel if you swap coolers in the future...but i bet you wont need to!
