[SOLVED] Red CPU light on

I just built my first pc and it’s not booting. Everything is plugged in correctly and all the fans are spinning.

When I first turn the psu on, the mother board lights flash for a little bit and the only light on is the Red CPU led.

I’ve tried everything. Reset the CMOS, took out the CMOS battery and put is back in, tried different ram slots and also with one ram, and even checked the cpu for bent pins.

If the Mobo was dead then wouldn’t the case fans and cpu not work?

Also I can turn my pc on from the front panel button but can’t turn it off when I hold or press it.

Specs:

  • Ryzen 5 2600
    16gb 2x8 3000mhz
    RX 580
    B450 Aorus Pro WiFi
    Corsair 650w psu

Everything is new but the GPU which is used but is also fairly new
