I put together a new build today with the following components
With that, I turned on the power supply and the motherboard flashed as if it turned on, then immediately shut off again. I figured it was a BIOS version incompatibility so I swapped the ryzen for the athlon and removed the GPU but it did the same thing. Then I removed the PSU to try the paperclip test and the PSU fan begins to spin but stops (similar to the motherboard lights). I suppose the psu is fine, so im starting to suspect its the b450. Any thoughts?
- ryzen 7 5800x (w corsair h60 cooler)
