Hello, I started a new build and am having an issue powering on my Z270e4.

Here is my equipment:

Phanteks P400s Case

Asrock Z270 Extreme 4

i5 8400

EVGA Geforce GTX 1050ti

Crucial Ballastix DDR4 (2 x 8gb)

Crucial CX650M PSU

Samsung EVO 250gb SSD

Toshiba 3.5" 1tb HD

I think everything is connected properly.. the MB lights up when the PSU is turned on.
However the power button does not function, none of the fans come on, etc.

Here is a gallery of the rig: https://imgur.com/a/GQISrQr" rel="nofollow - https://imgur.com/a/GQISrQr

Any help is appreciated!

I think that 1050ti has a power connection, probably on the end. If it does, a must to supply it.

Dear Sblake,

Thank you for choosing and contacting ASRock.

Regarding your case, we provide some suggestions to try:

1. Clear CMOS to load BIOS default.

Please check user manual p20 to clear CMOS.

2. Only install CPU and one stick memory to check if the system can boot into BIOS properly.

3. Reinstall CPU and check if CPU socket pin is fine.

4. If it is possible, please change another CPU or DRAM to check if the system can boot into BIOS properly.

Thank you!

Yours truly,

ASRock TSD
