New CPU+MOBO installed but computer fails to power on
I will return the PSU. I purchased the Corsair RM850X 80 PLUS ATX Fully Modular one, in the hope that replacing it will resolve the problem.
I confirmed it's correct. I'll disconnect the power supply tomorrow and bring it back. I'm hoping the updated supply will resolve the problem, fingers crossed.
I connected the new PSU, but there was no improvement. The CPU LED stayed on and the DRAM LED kept flashing. I reinserted the RAM, tried running a single stick again, reset the CMOS, verified all power cables were properly connected, and still nothing. I’m considering replacing the RAM just to be safe, as I’m really confused about what’s happening. It’s getting really frustrating.
And I just damaged the mobile pins by attempting to reinsert the CPU once more. I'm the unluckiest individual ever. I'm considering tossing this computer out the window.
