Did you build the computer yourself or buy it from a company (DELL, HP, ECT)?

-Lanaya- wrote Are you sure its not booting because it may be that you have not plugged your monitor into your graphics card? A way to check if your PC is booting is the HDD LED light will flash and the fans will spin on boot.
so to sum up what she/he said. Try and turn on your computer again with the graphics card in it and see if the fans start to spin. If the fans dont spin come back and tell us.

All the fans on my system spin, including the card ones

I got it off amazon awhile back, it was just a barebone system.

500w is enough. If all the fans do spin your PC is booting up. I see you said you had two monitors plugged in (one in the integrated graphics and one in the dedicated graphics) that's not gonna work... Have ONE monitor plugged into your discrete GPU and try it. Make sure all the cables are fine. Try different cables in different ports on the GPU.

500W should suffice given your PSU is of a quality build. I am not sure what to suggest but it seems like the GPU is the problem if your computer can boot without it.
