Hi Everyone,
I am currently making a build which I was planning to use as a mining rig eventually, but just desperately trying to get the PC working at this point to start out. I followed this basic guide to get everything set up and used basically the same recommended parts:

Parts (all purchased new):
Motherboard: AMD ROG Strix B450 - F Gaming
CPU: Ryzen 5 2600x
GPU: Nvidia GTX 1660Ti
Power Supply: Corsair ax1600i
RAM: Corsair Vengeance LPX 4GB x 2
Hard Drive: WD Internal SSD 500 GB
After installing all of the parts, power switch, etc and turning on power supply, when I press the power switch all I hear is a click and none of the fans move and nothing seems to respond. When I press the power switch a red light also appears on the Corsair power supply. The motherboard seems to be receiving power as the lights are on. I've tried literally everything I can think of to troubleshoot this including:
I'm really lost here as to what could be the issue and starting to think I damaged the motherboard or CPU, or these are faulty. Any advice would be much appreciated.

I've tried literally everything I can think of to troubleshoot this including:
- Removing 2 RAMs and leaving just one. Moved these around to different slots, still no help.
- Re-installed CPU, checked for any damage to CPU but it looks perfectly fine.
- Moved GPU around to different slots, still no response from these either.
- Tried both HDMI from the motherboard and GPU, nothing displays on monitor
I'm really lost here as to what could be the issue and starting to think I damaged the motherboard or CPU, or these are faulty. Any advice would be much appreciated.
