I went through the stuck post steps as best I could and still can’t understand what’s happening. Everything new except PSU and GPU, but both were used this morning. I’m getting zero power to anything. I’ve reconnected everything, swapped out RAM, moved to different slots, GPU off, CPU back in place. No sign of power at all—it’s really frustrating. Anyone see anything from the image? Thanks ahead.

Thermaltake 700w psu is the model in question, with 700W being the claimed power output. The unit itself is new, though both the PSU and GPU were used this morning. The age of the device isn't specified, but it's possible the PSU was bought used. It might help to detach the discrete GPU and test if the display turns off using the integrated graphics, as Thermaltake seems uncertain about its reliability. Consider building a 750W PSU from scratch with a reliable component to check for stability.

Tested a 750w Corsair PSU but no improvement. Replaced the motherboard completely and verified all connections, including standoffs—everything seems correct. Now I suspect the motherboard itself is faulty. Also tried using an IGPU, but nothing worked.

If it assists the SSD and M.2 being from a different PC too, then I'm mainly switching from AM4 to AM5. The motherboard, CPU, RAM, and cooler all moved into a new case. Only the PSU, GPU, and storage stayed the same.

Smart 700w thermaltake poses fire risks.
Remove storage.
Update your BIOS using the ASUS backup guide.

x3d requires a BIOS update example for flashing.

It seems it's just my powersw cable or the button. I attempted to jump it before, but it didn't turn on. It might be due to a poor connection between the pins, which could explain why it works now.
