Sorry for the unspecific title.
A few weeks ago I ordered a new processor that didin't fit my old mobo.
I bought a new mobo and got everything swapped out.

Now, my pc won't turn on. Nothing happens, not a single fan spinning. HOWEVER, the motherboard powers on perfectly.

Specs:
intel dp55sb lga 1156
750w Corair PSU
Sapphire Radeon HD 6670 1gb
Intel i3 @ 3.33
Alienware Area 51 case.


Im thinking it's either one of two things:
1: I simply plugged something in the wrong way.
2: The case is crippled. I've heard that Dell makes their Alienware cases a pain in the asss to get working on a new motherboard. So far, I know the Alienware area 51 ATX is a real challenge, but mine is NOT Atx

Any ideas? Anyone?
 
From what I can find your motherboard is Micro ATX and the case fits ITX boards, which aren't the same.

Try setting up your motherboard on a cardboard box with the CPU, CPU Cooler, RAM, GPU, and power all hooked up and see if it boots without problems. If it does then you're hardware is okay.

You might be able to find a way to get the motherboard to work in that case but I wouldn't advise it. Just get a new case, they're not to expensive for something decent. Around 50 bucks or so.
