So I got a new motherboard which was the tuf gaming x570 plus and I switched it out and tried to boot the system but it didn’t work and the leds were the only thing on. I have a j11 dark flash case and I think it didn’t turn on because the power button pins weren’t plugged in. I think I know where they go but I don’t know the order of them. The connectors are called: POWER SW, POWER LED+, POWER LED-, and +- H.D.D LED. I don’t know what they are actually called but I’m just assuming they are pins or pin connectors.
 
Solution
You need to orient your view of the front panel block properly.
Note where the open pins are to orient yourself.
The PWR pins are not polarity sensitive. One to PWR, one to ground.
On occasion, case front panel leads are miswired or defective.

If you want to start your motherboard, you can do so by touching a flat bladed screwdriver to the pwr and gnd pins momentarily.
