Hey all,
I just got my CPU today so today was the day i can finally put together my new rig :D
Specs are as in siggy.
I've set everything up as per usual got everything plugged in etc.
But when i go to power it up all looks promising then after about 5-10secs it powers down again :(
The green LED on the mobo stays green.
I'm really at a lost i don't have any idea what it could be only thing i have tried is diff ram that still doesnt help.
All parts are new so should be ok. Could anyone please give me some advice on how to sort this
 
Maybe the power switch is jammed? That would fit with it powering on, and then powering down as if the power button had been held in for a hard shutdown.
 
Aye in the process of that know will let ya know how it goes... im hoping maybe it was just a lose connection im basically taking every thing out and trying again. do you think maybe RAM might be a prob i heard about some times mobos RAM voltage is set quite low ~1.8V by default so if i use anything that requires more would that crash the system ?
Cheers
