As per Gigagbyte's website concerning this motherboard you must have the following from your power supply:

1 x 24-pin ATX main power connector

1 x 4-pin ATX 12V power connector


Are you saying your power supply doesn't have either? What power supply are you using?
 
I went and got a new Power supply with 24 pins and still nothen just the same
I am worriered that i mite have fryed the CPU

i looked AT it and it has some discolorasion it does not look burnet just off color from the rest.

there are 3 spots

ok i ran the PC for about 15 min nothen happen so i turned it off and as fast as i could i took the heatsink off and felt the top of the CPU and it was ice cold it mite have taken me 1 min to take the HS off.and it was ice

thats a bad CPU right
 
Do you or does a friend of yours have a multimeter to test the power supply?

Was the fan even spinning on the CPU heatsink?

I amj also concerned about your motherboard because power supplies that are faulty can cause hardware damage and in your case it looks like the wrong power supply was connected in the beginning.
 
After new power supply installation i turned on the PC and
HD turns on
CPU fan Turns on
PC Back Fan turns on
light for ethernet turns on
