    If the setup was all well in the old case, I suspect you forgot something in the transfer. It could be a misplaced motherboard standoff is touching the back of the board, a power connector not fully seated, or a loose connector in the front panel as Fireberd said.
    The only USB connector i have plugged in is the one that says "USB" and i plugged it into the port "F_USB1"

    what is a misplaced motherboard standoff?

    COULD IT BE THIS ISSUE: The screws in the motherboard did not line up for only ONE of the holes, so i simply left it with nothing in it, however every other screw lined up correctly , just this one didn't as there was no hole at all beneath it to screw into, so i didn't plug anything into it, could that be the issue?
    Yes, standoffs are the tiny brass inserts that go in the motherboard tray to which the board screws go into. you may have one screwed in that does not have a hold for it in the board. There should be six screws total and six standoffs, it's not a full size ATX board.

    Hmm alright i'll check in a bit, so i just need to count the screws and unscrew them to make sure they're put in properly? does this mean i have to take everything out

    Yes you'll have to take it all or most of it out. If you have a screw hole in the board but no place for a screw something is wrong. Usually board tray have multiple places to install the stand offs. Lay the board on a piece os paper and mark it with the mounting holes and check to see the case has only the standoffs installed to match them.

    You may be able to just remove the cables and your GPU from the board and remove it.

    Ok, i just took it out and checked, i do have 6 screws total, however on the bottom right of the board (if looking from the bottom of pc to top) there is no place for a standoff to fit in the case, so i simply left that one out, but that would total 7 screws?

    I moved the USB write into F_USB4 hoping that will fix the problem, any other ideas?

    I have circled in red the 6 mounting holes, if you have another hole in the lower right, it's not for mounting.
    Is this the correct board?
