Try re-seating the video card and make sure the cable is in all the way.

^ Yes.
I also didn't realize that you weren't even POSTing. No error beeps? Just powers up and does nothing?

Everything else spooling/clicking/dancing? System beeps? Don't mean to sound like a pessimist but did you put in the PCI-E power cable?

Are you positive that the system is starting up? i.e. are there some sounds that come up when the thing finishes booting, or does it make a printer move, or are you able to hold the keyboard key down and hear sound from keyclicks?
Just because it does not give any error beeps don't assume it started fine and just has no display.

Are you overclocked or stock? And am I understanding correctly, you said when it's out of the case everything is good, you have video? Have you cleared the cmos?

I've got the same problem, no beeps, no display, but fans on. Here's what I've tried to do. I tried a new motherboard, video card, and CPU. Does nothing. I'm now thinking it's either the RAM or the PSU. If you had problems turning it on in the first place, I would think it has something to do with the PSU. I'm thinking of trying a new PSU aswell. If that doesn't work I'll have enough parts to have a new computer! If you have a spare PSU lying around I would try that.
