Are you sure that you plugged everything in correctly? Not everything goes in the same. For instance, if you're moving stuff from a prebuilt computer to a new custom case, you now have to account for where to plug in the LEDs, front buttons, etc. It's stuff you might not have had to worry about before.

If everything is plugged in correctly (which it's probably not at this point), there's no reason you shouldn't be able to boot up. I remember the first time I did this, I plugged every stray plug/cable into things that looked like it would fit, and obviously, that wasn't the smart way to do things.

Do you have the RAM install right? And make sure ALL the cables are installed and installed firmly.

how do u check the motherboard standoff??

the standoffs are the small metal mounts that hold your motherboard to your case. make sure they are in the proper place. if you did not use standoffs, that is probably your problem
