After that was done i was hopeing to turn it on and the fans started working and the green light came on and such but no screen display D: . I rebuilt it 2 times but still no display... I woke up tommorow morning only to find it to turn on for a few secs and than it shuts its self off -_-* Than i unpluged the cord tried again and now it wont even turn on D=....
Never buy from Rosewill and did the PSU cause this???

Rosewill is just like any other brand, they occasionally produce duds. But the no display part kinda seems like your GPU, or its possible you jarred your CPU a bit.

Are there any LED lights or other indications that help to diagnose the problem? Check your manuals, I once thought my PSU was dead but it turned out to be my motherboard and CPU that fried.

You might have a short. Try testing your system.

Here's the best way to test your PSU;

1. Get an empty cardboard box and flatten it down

2. Take all the contents of your PC and place them on the cardboard.

3. Plug in the power supply to all the basic components and put the mobo together on the cardboard;
Mobo, gpu, ram, cpu fan. And plug the gpu into the monitor.
For now leave the Hard drive(s) and case fans, mice, keyboard, etc. out.

4. If you use a motherboard with a startup button (ie Asus P6T) then press that to start the system up. If not "hotwire" the PSU (just google how to do that) or alternatively if the power button connector from the case is long enough, attach it to the mobo and use that to start it up.

5. If your PSU is not broken the PC should start and the screen should say
"select proper boot device to continue" or something like that (because no hard drive) If not then your psu is probably dead. But it sounds like a short.

6. If it is a short, make sure your standoffs are properly inserted when putting the case back together, and make sure you don't have any cut/exposed wiring.

By the way, that PSU is quite the opposite of shit, actually what is the opposite of shit? Piss? Cause that's bad too lol...
