Wait until you get ALL the components, then benchtest BEFORE installing the board in the case. If you already mounted it in the case, take it out & wait til your other parts come in.

When removing from the case look at the case standoffs to verify they are placed under every screwhole in the MBoard and ONLY under the screwholes.

Also read your motherboard manual. It may say something about the CPU fan which may indicate it is controlled by a thermal sensor and will only spin up once the CPU reaches a certain temperature. Just a guess.
I used to have a signature but it disappeared and I just couldn't be bothered writing another so please feel free to ingore this.
