    I'm at the end of my build and I went to cut on the power supply and ... nothing happened. What are the odds that the power supply is bad versus a bad motherboard? I'm about to start the process of returning one or the other (or eventually maybe both), and I'd like to get educated. (The PSU is: Apevia / 500-Watt / ATX / Dual 80mm LED Fan / Black Aluminum, Clear Top / Power Supply)

    In an attempt to debug I tried to just install the 20-pin and 4-pin power cables to the mobo, then fire it up. No luck.
