So I finally got around to buying all the parts and assembling this thing and it won't turn on. The CPU fan spins for a few seconds then stops, then spins again and keeps doing this in a cycle. I'm concerned I may have a short somewhere so I'm going to try unplugging everything and starting over one cable at a time. I'm just posting this in case anyone is familiar with this symptom.
I also realize very late that I bought the Core I7-3770K not the processor that was recommended in the original post. Does my processor consume more power than bitdoctor's? From scanning through the replies, it looks like this build was close to max power consumption of the available power for the case. I hope I'm not exceeding it.
