psu has 1.5, 3.3, 5, 12 volt rails and it is possible to lose a 3v rail and still keep the 12v that the fans and lights run on.

Woo!!!!!!! its back up!

Its turns out
1. It was trying to boot from wrong HDD
2. A cable was causing it to not boot properly but booted once disconnected
3. (really embarrassing one) When I took the ram out to test em one by one...I didn't properly seat one after putting all 4 back in

So it cost me $35 to get that simple embarrassing fix >_>
