Question Weird situation.

[Swa5931]

Hello,

So im upgrading my computer and running into an issue. The issue is the Z790 pro lights up and runs the watercooler fans with only the 24pin connected but I have 6 other fans and the rest of the motherboard doesn't. So you know I plugged in the two 8pin cpu connectors and fired it up and nothing. No lights, noises, none of the fans are running nothing.

The CPU is brand new the PSU is 850, I have all the wires. The ram is good. I have a new motherboard order since I personally think it's dead but does anyone else have a similar situation like this? Did you figure it out and what it was?

I can't even get post to show on a monitor with the 24 pin only.

When I connect the 2 ATX 8 pin wires the mobo is completely dead

Reporting back tried the PSU in my older computer I think the ATX wires are blown or the psu is blown. It makes a click noise when I turn on my pc and delivers no power. My old pc works no problem at all with a different psu just not this one..weird!
