Benchmark Scores Faster than yours... I'd bet on it. :)
Sounds like a bad psu if it doesnt work jumped...assuming you did that right...

What psu do you have? System specs please...

After reseating all connections, try it again. If it doesnt work, I'd buy another psu and see if that solves it.

But its only 3 months old....
Thank you anyway....
Just because its 3 months old doesnt mean they cant fail, bud....

RMA the psu...

but you have to test it somehow first to see if it's the problem... which is why I suggested to buy one to test...

You can try breadbaording it (building it outside the case on a box) too...

'Dog is right, just because it's new, doesn't mean it can't fail. Power supply is the most likely culprit here. Unplug everything inside except the processor fan, see if it starts up/posts at all. If it still doesn't, power supply is the highest probability. Could always be the board or processor, but the easiest to test is going to be power supply.

You would need to CPU for it to attempt to boot grf. ;)

Everything except CPU and CPU fan header...

...this will also give you a chance to reseat all the plugs.

If it's only 3 months old, RMA it like Earthdog said, it should be replaced if faulty.
