New i7 build cycles on and off?
Hi folks I need your wisdom. I just built a i7 3770 build using my new case, old 1050 PSU and a new to me single Diamond 6870 GPU. I took my time and really labored over the install. I even went out and got a new Thermaltake 240 sealed cpu water cooler system set up on it. When I turn the unit on all the MSI P67A-GD80 leds light up and my fans spin, my new DVD and Blu-Ray cycle on and all my accessories power up but then about every 5-10 seconds it will cycle off and then attempt to power up in a loop. Does anyone have an idea what's up. Can't get to bios and from what I can tell all the leds are telling me system is fine. I thought maybe because this board comes with a 8 pin CPU plug and a 6 pin GPU plug which I hadn't hooked up that I would run the 6 pin cable and that would be it, but no it's not it. Dbl. checked all connections twice and then looked extra hard at the connections for the power,led,hdd,restart headers and they all appear to be fine. I'm sure it's something simple but could really use your input !
