So if you boot up a desktop, and....

-absolutely no picture comes through despite checking both video cards to see if they worked

-running both cards through 2 different monitors to make sure it wasn't the monitor

-when starting the computer get no boot "beep" but turns on and off.

-keyboard and mouse don't register/light up showing functionality

Basically when I turn it on it becomes a glowing blue fan .

I'm assuming motherboard failed? Anyone have any insight if they would happen to know? Would appreciate it and will rep for effort.

No beeps? That sounds like a power, loose cord issue. Check your power supply.

This guy had the same issue:

It worked. Thanks a lot! I can't believe the connections went out of place like that, weird. I learned a lot about the internals as well so I'm about to upgrade heavy .

Upgrading is fun as hell. It's nice to see improvements with your shyt

But what to upgrade first?

I bought:

-2 ASUS GTX 780's

-Kingston 480GB SSD

-2 Corsair RAM Cartridges (2x8GB)=32GB RAM setup.

I'm worried that the RAM won't work, I don't wanna update my BIOS files. They're a hassle to update, matter fact my BIOS files better not interrupt any of this shyt .

The parts should arrive Monday .

I was reading that if the BIOS files aren't up to date they can possibly cause the fresh RAM you installed to not work correctly. I wanted 32GB because I like being as future proof as I possibly can . I just like my shyt loading as fast as possible.

If I get a watchdogs code you can have it .

That's the thing, I don't know yet, I tried the lazy way to figure it out by doing it all thru windows and didn't get shyt so I plan on opening up my rig to get an exact name/model number.
