Red CPU light comes on. Reseated already to make sure it was done right the first time.
Tried resetting cmos/ hard bios reset
tried ram stick swap outs
replaced psu because original one was absolutely DOA, powered everything for 1 sec then everything would shut off.
With new PSU all lights/fans come on, but am stuck with a cpu light.

I know many users who have the b450 tomahawk max have been having this issue, i just cant find a solution.

Maybe the CPU is faulty?

The B450 Tomahawk MAX is a good board and it already has the BIOS version to support that CPU.

Make sure all cables are connected properly.

Look for bent pin on the CPU.
