Hey guys,
First time builder here. The following is my build:
http://pcpartpicker.com/user/eadgaar/saved/FQ6KHx
I put the basics together outside the box to make sure components were working. I only put together RAM, CPU, PSU, and MoBo. The MoBo was connected to a monitor. I turned on this system by connecting the front panel of my case to the power connector on the MoBo.
No bios appear on the screen so, I thought maybe if I connected the SSD, there would be some response. Only CPU fan turned on again.
I built this system on a glass top table, in a room with hardwood floors. I also, touched various metal items, like pennys and screws before touching any component.
I will be having an IT guy come and test out the MoBo for me, but building my own system is a learning experience I want.
Any suggestions?
