I had just got my new (out of the box) Aorus 450 Pro WiFi MoBo and installed all of the components(20+4 pin, 4+4 pin, and CPU + fan are all in the right spots).
I originally had a Gigabyte 350 that turned on just fine but it wasn’t comparable with the CPU as I was getting no Video. (Meaning the tower works)
I double checked the power cables from the tower and they are all in the right spot. When I plug my Bronze 500B PSU in and turn it on, I will get a flash of LED on the MoBo indicating that it is getting power (a friend has the same MoBo and his does the same) but when I hit the power button on the tower, I am getting no power.
Here is what I have troubleshot so far:
PSU not giving enough power to turn on?
- I don’t think this is the issue as we tried a Corsair 1000 PSU and it still didn’t work.
Tower not working?
- It worked on my 350, so again I don’t think this is the issue.
4 pins from the tower for power?
- triple checked they were in the right spot
Loose cables?
- again triple checked these.
What else can I eliminate as the root of the problem before I decide to request a new MoBo and label this one as DoA?
Specs:
CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 2600
Motherboard: Aorus B450 Pro WiFi Socket AM4
Ram: Corsair Vengence LPX 8GB x2
SSD/HDD: Samsung 860 EVO 1TB
GPU: PowerColor RED DEVIL Radeon RX 580 DirectX 12 AXRX 580 8GBD5-3DH/OC 8GB 256-Bit GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 CrossFireX Support ATX Video Card
PSU: EVGA 500B 500W 80+ Bronze
Chassis: Apevia X-Pioneer-GN ATX Mid Tower
OS: Windows 10
The everything worked (except for video) with the only change being the MoBo was a Gigabyte B350
