Given the last question that dagon73 asked, my guess is he did not have the 4/8 pin CPU power cable connected to the board, which is required.
In his case, it seems the PSU itself was not the problem. I assume you have the 4/8 pin CPU power cable connected to the board?
It was not easy to find information about your FinePower PSU, at least not on English language websites. That brand seems to be common in Russia, but not much elsewhere. I did find it seems to have multiple +12V rails, limited to 16A on two rails, 14A on one, and 8A on another. Those rails when combined are way over 500W, which does not include the +5 and +3.3V rails. This PSU was designed for older processors, that did not use 12V power for the CPU.
What was you old PC's configuration?
But it could be any number of other things that are not right.
What is the full model number of your memory? Did you try your memory in the A1 and B1 slots?
You said you have a video card, but did not include its information. Have you tried using the Intel integrated graphics, removing the video card?
If you move your memory to the other slots, or remove the video card, be sure to clear the CMOS/BIOS before starting the PC again.
