Potential problem with the power source affecting the device's operation.
Hi, I assembled my PC around Christmas (Ryzen 5 5600, EVGA G.D. 500, Gigabyte B450M DS3H, EVGA GTX 950, Corsair Vengeance LX 950, 8 x 2x Corsair Vengeance LX RAM sticks, 1TB NVMe M.2 on a Samsung 970 EVO, and the Thermaltake S100). Since last night it won’t power up at all. When I try to turn it on, the power supply fans keep spinning endlessly, the GPU only starts briefly then stops, and the case light stays steady for a moment before flickering. No display appears, even when using IG-PUGA on the GPU board. There are no error codes on the motherboard, and I’ve checked everything: removed all PCIe cards, booted from reseated RAM, CPU, GPU, power cables, cleared CMOS, verified USB ports, reset switches, HDD light, and front panel LEDs. I even tried booting with just one RAM stick (checked both). It’s really confusing—I’m not sure what to do now. Please help.

The differences between Intel and AMD motherboards are minimal. You have a speaker with two headers that produces a beep code—whether you need one depends on your setup. If you can use a basic speaker and connect it to your board, troubleshooting should become simpler. For me, the speaker is located on the top right four-pin connector on the front panel.
