    The weight of a PSU is a massive clue to the quality.
    Heavier the better.

    I'd heard that before and quote it myself but I'm glad I've heard it from the PSU Man himself - Mr Blitzen

    Have you tried making sure there is a fan connected to each of the motherboard headers?

    Long shot but sometimes boards come with the "Power off on fan failure" option enabled.

    Bummer dude! Know how you feel, its a pian when you're desperate to get a system up and running and it refuses to work. At least you got the parts from a place you know are going to be reasonable with the rma.

    Best of luck sorting it out!
