    Pc build help

    Need a little help on my pc build

    So I’m building a pc for the first time everything seems to be going well. However when I power on only the motherboard lights turn on everything else is completely lifeless including fans lights and graphics card I’m not sure why I’m guessing I’ve forgot to plug something in or perhaps plugged something in the wrong place on the motherboard.

    Here are some links to pictures of where And what I’ve plugged in the build;

    I suspect maybe it’s the f-panel
    Feel free to ask for any more photos or info
    Thank you

    G’day and welcome to the forums.

    yeah, those pics don’t show too much.
    make sure the 24pin power cable is securely seated in the motherboard.
    there will also be another 4 or 8 pin (depending on motherboard and PSU) power cable to plug in.
    your user manual that came with the motherboard will be your friend here.

    make sure the memory is seated properly.
    also check the mounting points between the motherboard and the chassis, there may be one in the wrong place causing a short.

    as to the front panel header, if the power switch, reset switch, HDD LED and power LED are all seperate cables, make sure they are in their correct slots and orientated the right way (+ and -)
