This is my first time building a computer and I was pretty stoked to do so. I got all the parts and put everything together. When I tried starting up the computer to see if it would run, it would turn on for half a second and then shut off. Well after troubleshooting with some buddies of mine I found out one of the prongs where the CPU goes on the motherboard was bent. I took the CPU out and left everything else plugged in and it ran just fine. Well I got a new motherboard (same model) and put everything back together and tried running it again but the same thing happened. The computer turned on for half a second and then turned off. I checked to see if any of the prongs were bent again but none of them were. I tried unplugging the CPU power cord and running the computer that way (with CPU and fan installed) and it stayed on that time. I tried plugging the CPU power cord back in but the same thing happened as before. Turned on for half a second and then turned off. I have no idea why it could be doing this so any help would be appreciated. I've already tried a different PSU but that wasn't it and all the stand off's are in the proper spots. Here are my parts

MOBO: msi Z370-A PRO
PSU: EVGA 450 watt bronze
GPU: EVGA geforce GTX 1060
