My new PC won't boot

Just upgraded my mb, cpu, and ram. Bought an intel i5 10600k, gigabyte b460m dh3s ac, and Corsair vengeance lpx ram. The place I bought from put it all together in store for me, I just had to bolt it into my tower.

They sold me a cooler master 212 fan & heat sink combo. After fiddling with that for too long, I finally got it to sit right.

Plugged everything in, and nothing. No POST.

Anyone able to guide me a bit? I’ve swapped the dimms from 2&4 to 1&3 and still nothing. I’ve tried unplugging anything not needed for boot, and still nothing. I’ve never had this problem on any other build

Fans come on, that’s it. Power is good, just no post for boot up. Can’t change bios settings or anything til I get that

Double check that all connections are there and seated properly.
Boot with only one stick of memory.
If you're using a graphics card, take it out and boot with the motheboard hdmi

After that I would take it all out of the case and build it on the motherboard box, boot with the minimum.

The store that put it together, did they boot it?

No clue if they booted it. I’ll try one stick and see what happens. Nothing still. Gonna try my old stuff and see if that all still works

Take a flat head screw driver and short our the PwrBtn to see if it turns on. Might have the PwrBtn plugged into the wrong pins or faulty button..could be as simple as that.

- sales speech
- does not answer OP's question
- OP has his computer fixed by then 100% sure, doubt he would wait 1 year + with a new machine for e90post to answer.
