-Gigabyte Z790 Aorus Elite AX offers an i9-13900K with 2x16GB DDR5 RAM at 6400MHz. It runs GeForce 4070 and MSI A850GL PCIe 5.0, but boots without post and shows an amber CPU light. My system works fine, so I’ve tried reseating components and using a single RAM stick. Since I’m new to PC building, wiring might be off, but I’m unsure what to do next.

Ensure all components are securely connected and powered on completely. Verify the cooler's fit is neither overly loose nor excessively tight.

I only have three functional mounts left for the AIO RN because I accidentally crossed a thread during installation. I tried removing one to align it better with two others, but that didn’t fix the issue. I also placed an order for a replacement mount on Amazon, which should help.
