hi,
Do you get a POST beep when you try to boot?Are you certain the monitor works? To test it simply disconnect the monitor cable from the graphics port and turn it on.
you should get an on-screen error message about signal out of range. If this does not display then the monitor is faulty.

Sounds like a faulty Power Supply. If it's only 3 weeks old I'd demand a replacement. Or better yet your money back so you can get something decent.
Have you checked to see if the heat sink is securely attached to the CPU and tried reseating (removing and reinstalling) the video card in the computer? If so, did that make any difference?
Re: Foxconn motherboard issues
Well, the first thing that might be causing this is your memory card (RAM). Try to remove it and place it in another memory slot on the motherboard.
To be sure if your motherboard is still in good working condition, remove the memory card and power on the PC. You should hear continuous beep sounds.
If you hear this then your motherboard is fine. If placing the memory card in another slot does not work then the problem lies with the memory card itself. You will need to replace it.
Try to remove your PCI cards. Normally a faulting PCI modem causes this type of error. Remove it and then power on the pc.
The processor cannot be faulty but still if you want to check it, remove the CPU Cooler fan. Then turn on the PC.
