Hello, I am currently making my first-ever tower pc and I ran into error code 55. I tried resetting the ram into all of the slots and the same error popped up. I tried seeing if it was my CPU, and it was slotted in correctly. I even checked to see if it was my cords, and yet still nothing happened. Im starting to think I might need to buy a new motherboard because of the error. I looked online for awhile trying to find solutions on why I couldn't boot my pc up.

Note: I have a prebuilt one that ran all of that smoothly before I installed all of those components into the new pc. I also have a new SSD getting shipped in if that is the problem (SAMSUNG 970 EVO PLUS M.2 2280 2TB)

Here are the specs:
- ROG Strix Z590-E
- Mushkin Enhanced Redline Stiletto 64GB (2 x 32GB)
- Foxcon brushless fan PVA 080G12Q
- Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-10700 2.90 GHz
- PC SN530 NVMe WDC 512 gb

Error code 55 is a RAM issue. This blog has steps on how to solve the issue most of the time. https://etail.market/blog/asus-error-code-55

What is the speed of the RAM that you are trying to use?
 
the speed of the ram is DDR4 3200 (PC4 25600) but the big part of the problem I forgot to add is the tower won't display anything on the screen.
So the drive your using is from the old PC with Windows already installed?

If so remove the drive, reset CMOS and try to boot into BIOS.

Then you can check for bent CPU socket pins.

Were these used parts?

The drive does in fact have windows installed on the SSD.

It does appear that some of the pins on the motherboard are actually bent but I have no idea how to fix them.

the SSD, CPU, and CPU heatsink were used but I have been using them before and they work completely fine

EDIT: I am currently trying to figure out where the cmos pins are. I could not find it in the manual so im looking pin by pin

You can reset the cmos by unplugging the computer, remove the battery, hit the power button to clear the capacitors, and reinstall the battery.
 
I just finished the CMOS but there is still no display. I don't know what else I could do


Edit: I've been trying to adjust the CPU pins for a while now, but 3 of them seem to be flattened beyond repair
