He just got all his parts from Newegg a few days ago, bought a better graphics card from me, put it all together, put Windows 7 on it and got a few drivers on it, then shut it down and now nothing gets power.
He said he tried two different power supplies, checked the circuit breaker, disassembled and reassembled the whole thing and nothing made a difference. I'm thinking it's the motherboard. He also forgot to plug the 4-pin CPU power in the first time he started it up and said the peripherals weren't working so I don't know if he may have damaged something that way or not.
The graphics card is only a GTX 760 powered by a 600W PSU so it's not like it's terribly overburdened or anything unless it was a shitty brand, but it's Corsair so it shouldn't be
These are the other specs:
Looking at the mobo, a decent few reviews say DOA or something along those lines, makes me really think that may be the culprit now
