So i purchased a few parts recently, most new mobo, PSU,Ram and processor.
Now I have put everything together and when I boot up the computer is makes a rapid beep sequence for about 30 seconds then reboots. Its a continuous loop.

Now I did try to google the issue and it appears it could be anything from Ram to insufficient power.

Now the things I have tried:
Ensured all connections between PSU and mobo are correct.
With Ram and without ram
2 Different PSU
Seeing whether any other devices could cause issue, IE GFX card, HDD.

Regardless what I try I get the same beep. It is progress since I was getting nothing at all last night.

Now These are the parts I currently ordered(Dont have that nifty BB code thing since I am at work):

Hopefully it isnt a mobo problem but it seems it may be. Also I cant provide any further information until about 9:30pm(Uk Time) so hopefully the solution will be here when I get back. To be honest I did expect to have issues with my new PC, only a fool believes that they can succeed without issues lol.

Sadly not. I don't get any picture at all. I finishes its beep cycle, shuts off then reboots.

Now I have just tried removing all components, as expected the stage before the beeps stopped was just the CPU and mobo connected to the PSU.

I'm not sure how crucial this is but some of the pins on the mobo look as if they have been bent, I can asure you that I haven't touched any of these parts since I got it.

No sure there much else I can do other than call overclockers and see what they say.
 
Spoke to tech support for overclockers, mentioned the pin and they said they would replace the mobo for me as that sounds to be the problem.

Hopefully thats all thats required.

EDIT: Only just saw your post there, I will get a pic for you ASAP just to show the damage, I do have to head to work now so can't do it atm.
