Hi all, I'm building my first pc and im having a serious problem.

I Have put all the parts together and when it comes to turning on the pc everything boots up all the fans are running, basically everything on the motherboard is running.

Here is a list off the specs:

Case - BitFenix Comrade Midi-Tower
Hardrive - 1TB Seagate Barracuda SATA III Hard Drive
DVD Drive - 24x LiteOn Internal DVD-RW Drive
CPU - AMD (Piledriver) FX-6300 3.50GHz (4.10GHz Turbo) Socket AM3+ 6-Core Processor
RAM - 8GB (2x4GB) Crucial Ballistix Sport
Mobo - Gigabyte GA-970A-UD3P AMD Socket AM3+ Motherboard
Power supply - 500W - EVGA 80+ White Rated Power Supply
Graphics Card- Nvidia GTX 750ti 2GB

I have test all off the parts except for the CPU and the power supply because I have no way off checking if they are working or not.

Any help would be appreciated

You haven't really explained what isn't working, you say that the fans etc spin up and work fine?

It wouldn't be a CPU issue because you would get some sort of beep code / message on the screen. Nor would it be power since everything is booting up.

Sounds like user error so tipple check all the cables are in and make sure that your using the GPU display output instead of the motherboard.

Try a different cable type eg VGA.

I wouldn't trust a gaming youtuber when building your PC, just the fact that the build that you got from his video is crap..

Pictures of the I/O, inside the case will help

His might work fine, but it's still shit for the price.

We can't really help without a budget if none of noodleman's (Xlggy) options worked.
