My brehs I never experienced this before building a PC for a kid and the I believe the PSU is faulty. The computer doesn't turn on at all, the fans don't turn on, no beeping noise. The only thing that lights up is the lettering on the motherboard.

Going to run to the store to get another PSU. Anybody experienced this before?

does the mobo have a speaker on it?
that could be why there is no beep?
you prob already checked this but the pin connection from the power button to the mobo?

Yeah it does have a speaker and I checked the connector completely. When you hit the switch on the PSU the icon would light up on motherboard but nothing else gets turned on. I mean nothing.

Just plug in the PSU and the fan doesn't even move on the PSU. Just a clicking noise. Heading to best buy to buy another PSU to see
