I built my PC a few days ago and it was working fine up until today. I've only used it for a few hours .
Today, I was playing my usual game and my computer suddenly crashed and the red CPU light (EZdebug) is permanently on on my motherboard.
My PC is now stuck in a loop where it'll turn on and off every few seconds. Nothing will post.
All my parts are new. I did the initial bios flashback when initially building my computer.
XMP profile was selected to have the RAM run at 5600mhz.
I was NOT overlocking my CPU.
This is the build:
CPU: Intel Core i5-13600K
CPU Cooler: Cooler Master MASTERLIQUID ML240L RGB V2 65.59 CFM Liquid CPU Cooler
Motherboard: MSI PRO Z690-A WIFI ATX LGA1700 Motherboard
Memory: Corsair Vengeance 32 GB (2 x 16 GB) DDR5-5600 CL36 Memory
Video Card: MSI GAMING Z TRIO GeForce RTX 3080 10GB 10 GB
Power Supply: Corsair HX1000i 1000 W Platinum
These are the trouble shooting steps I've taken:
The cooler was properly connected and all fans were working in the computer.
I don't have another CPU to try on my motherboard. Again, my PC was working fine before. Nothing seemed to be running hot.
I tried to update the BIOS using the flash button without RAM or cpu installed and the red light is still on.

These are the trouble shooting steps I've taken:
- Tried new power supply
- Made sure that all the cables from PSU to MOBO were properly connected
- Reseated the RAM, and tried 1 RAM stick instead of 2
- Reset CMOS
- Bios flashback with USB
- Unplugged all peripherals and tried to boot with only the CPU, RAM and power
- Removed GPU
- Removed and reseated the CPU (I also checked for any bent pins but there's nothing)
The cooler was properly connected and all fans were working in the computer.
