New build powers on then turns off - and repeats

Hi,

I've finished my new build, when I turn it on the fans start but after a few seconds the fan stops. It then starts up again a few seconds later for a while then turns off again. Nothing appears on the monitor.

I've checked all the cables and they're all fine. What could be the problem?

And is the motherboard in or out of the case right now? Best to test the core parts out of the case for the first startup.
