Check the back of the power supply. There should be a red switch, if you live in the US, make sure you can read 110V.

You might have a faulty component if everything is hooked up. Try switching out the PSU with another one if you can and the RAM. If that doesn't fix it than your MOBO might have been DOA.

Hi Make sure you have your CPU 4 pin power plug

plugged in. It's in the upper left corner of the motherboard.

System won't boot without it plugged in.

Beat me to it. Check if you have a 4 pin or an 8 pin connector as well, depends on your PSU (Mine only had a 8 pin connector)
