Question Red dram light and no display on new AM5 build, please help

[polskidro]

I've tried taking 1 ram stick out. I've tried all 4 slots. I've looked at the cpu socket pins. I've looked at the cpu power pins. I've looked at the MOBO power pins. I've flashed the latest bios. I've reseated everything several times including the CPU, the heatsink, the m2 ssd's. Everything's right into place. I've tried the CMOS battery. I've put one of those speakers in that people use to troubleshoot, 0 beeps.

I have tried a lot and nothing has worked. I'm getting desperate.

Motherboard is a gigabyte b650 eagle. Cpu 7800x3d. Ram is silicon power powerx storm 6000 mhz 30 cl.

I did see my CPU seems to have something going on on the underside. You can only see it at an angle. Don't know if it's a bit dirty or if it's DOA.

You're going to have to take better pictures. The first one's blurry while the depth of field on the second prevents us from seeing the rest of the CPU's underside. Might want to pass on images of your CPU's socket using ambient lighting. Sometimes we tend to spot something that users miss.

You can try and take an eraser and then clean the underside of that processor, where you mention the marks appearing(please note, do not do so on the CPU's socket!!!).

Rams should be populating slots A2 and B2, make sure the rams are fully seated.

When posting a thread of troubleshooting nature, it's customary to include your full system's specs. Please list the specs to your build like so:
CPU:
CPU cooler:
Motherboard:
Ram:
SSD/HDD:
GPU:
PSU:
Chassis:
include the age of the PSU apart from it's make and model. BIOS version for your motherboard at this moment of time(in your case, what you flashed it to).

Sorry it's not easy to get a good picture of the marks cause it only shows from a certain angle.

The rams are fully seated and in A2 and B2.
Also tried to seat only 1 of the RAMs in case 1 was dead. No changes regardless of which slot.

CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 7800x3d
CPU cooler: Thermalright Phantom Spirit 120 SE ARGB
Motherboard: GIGABYTE B650 EAGLE
Ram: Silicon Power PowerX Storm 6000 mhz 30 CL dual RAM sticks, 16 gb each
SSD/HDD: Lexar NM790 4TB
GPU: AMD Sapphire Radeon 7900 XT Nitro+
PSU: Seasonic B12 BC 850W
Chassis: Zalman Z1 Iceberg

Every single part is only a week old or less, except for the Chassis which is around 4 years old without any issues.

I can also say the issue should not be with the GPU, SSD or PSU. Since all 3 of those I tested on my old PC with no problems.

I flashed the bios to version F31.

I will try the eraser trick tomorrow when I wake up, are you sure this can't damage the CPU?

I missed that you asked about socket pictures aswell

Can't get ambient light right now but think they look pretty alright still

Did the processor come out of the box, like that? If so, you should try and drop it onto a known working motherboard and see if the same issue persists. If it does, then initiate an RMA. As for the eraser, no it shouldn't unless you go bonkers with the erasing that you remove the gold contacts off the bottom of the processor(which is impossible without a terminator arm) but the processor is brand new which is why I wouldn't suggest the eraser method anymore.
