So I took my cousin's PC to clean it up, replace a few 120mm fans and shit like that. Was working fine.
Cliffs.
1. Replaced 2 120mm fans.
2. Replaced the stock intel HSF. Had to take it out the MB to install the back plate.
3. Put everything together and push the power button - no sign of life, except the light on the PSU turns on and the mouse lids up.
4. Tried to short the 2 pins on the MB, but still no go.
5. Double checked the cables. Everything is tightly connected.
So what happened?
