Hi guys, I'm building a new computer and have had issues getting it to start. It'll make slight noises or flash a few lights when powering on but simply won't start. I've just attempted booting it up with motherboard, cpu, and memory and still nothing. Which leads me to believe that my power supply is to low-500W. I'm pretty sure the board needs at least 500w to boot up so I'm confused :/.
