Hey all, so my new PC build I'm working on won't power on and I have no idea why. First, specs:
Mobo: Asus rog strix b450i
CPU: R5 3600x
GPU: msi gtx 980 (from old PC)
SSD: Intel 660p 1tb
Ram: Trident z RGB 3600 MHz
Psu: Corsair sf600
Plus random fans and air cooler.
So this is my third PC I've built so I don't think I'm making some stupid newbie mistake. What I know:
Motherboard, ram, SSD, and power supply works, uses my friend's 2200g to power the rig on and update bios to support ryzen 3rd gen
The CPU is probably not dead. The first one I ordered the PC wouldn't turn on either, so I sent it back to Amazon and got a replacement. Doubtful I got two DOA in a row
Graphics card worked fine in my old PC, never had any hiccups.
With the 3600x, the motherboard RGB lights are doing their thing, so it's getting power.
Completely lost on what to do. All cables are plugged into the motherboard and GPU. Power supply is obviously turned on. I can't even short the pins to turn the PC on.
