Hey! It seems like the CPU cables from your motherboard aren’t communicating properly with the PSU. When you remove them, fans work and RAM RGB lights up, suggesting the power supply is getting enough voltage. This points more toward an issue with the CPU or its power delivery rather than the PSU itself. Since you’ve got new parts, it’s likely a compatibility or connection problem on the board. Check connections, try a different cable, or consult the manufacturer for further guidance.

Yes, only the cables that came with the power supply are used.
