New computer build went smoothly but the thing doesn't work at all.
List of parts:
Asrock 970 extreme3 AM3+ motherboard
sapphire HD6670 video card
Corsair 430W CX430 PSU
AMD 8 core FX-8320 cpu
4GB x 2 Gskill F3-12800CL9T
1TB wd blue hard drive
Asus DVD burner
Corsair Carbide Series 200R case
Anyway I get nothing on screen. I have tried moving the ram, using 1 ram stick, using my dd3 ram from the computer I am an now, so it's not the ram. Tried an older video card, no dice. Tried resetting the CPU, set it in perfectly again no dice. Tried using the PSU from this computer, no dice.
So it's either the motherboard or cpu...but I have no way of telling. Unless maybe I had a speaker for the error code? Not sure where I could get that.
I wanted to just ship back the mobo/cpu and go intel instead but no return on the cpu.
What's the next step then?
Thanks
