Folks I goofed up. Was moving my current rig into a new case that would fit the 7900xtx i bought myself for my birthday. Consiquently i upgraded my psu to a Coursair RM1000e fully modular psu. The smart move i did was just move the mobo and gpu to the new case with the new psu, test boot to make sure all was good then install the 7900. long story short no boot on the test boot. No psu fan spin, no debug leds on mobo, no visible smoke or sizzling noise. Decided to swap new psu for old and discovered i put the Cpu 8pin into the (old)Gpu and one of the 6+2 pcie cables to the cpu socket. Pretty sure the old setup is toast. Plan going forward take m.2 from old mobo put in m.2 to usb adapter and check if it is still good. if so build new 5950X system once last of the parts arrive Wednsday. Was not expecting to dip into savings but oh well. Boot in safemode since going from a Asus Tuff Gaming to an MSI mobo. Copy last of the files off that m.2 then burn install media for proxmox and win 10. then use that m.2 as a secondary to the new one incase it decides to crap out. Build new vm's for win 10, Linux, and Android-X86. Given the oopsie i just did and the plan i have does anyone see any holes in that plan?

Just plug a known working psu into the old system. Big chance it still works as the psu you have has safety stuff regarding these mishaps. Board might take a day to basically unfuck itself as it does hold a charge for a while but thats about it. Like have you even tried or just stopped and went to order new parts immediatly?

Is it just a plug-and-play device? The rm1000e won’t power on unless it meets its internal voltage requirements.

The plan is set for today once the testing tools arrive and I’m off work. I’ll update you on the outcome.

Received an MSI B550 return. Discovered a Best Buy offer for an Asus Tuff Gaming X570 PCIe slot priced just $70 higher than the MSI B550. The X570 will arrive on Wednesday, matching the 5950X release date.
