First time posting here, hopefully this how you do it. Basically I've put together my pc (i7 13700k, asus z790-a WiFi, rtx 3070, 1x32gb ram(bought 1x32 instead of 2x16, should still boot though), a wd blue m.2 and a gigabyte ud750gm), and after pushing the power button, the psu clicks once, aaand nothing. The rbg on the mobo works, incase that makes a difference. I've tried using different pcie/cpu holes on the psu, no difference. Even incase the mb was shorting with something in the case, I removed it, and it still clicked, and did nothing. I heavily doubt it's a motherboard failure, but im running out of options. Could it maybe be a short somewhere? I even popped out the cpu and all the pins look fine. I'm lost, I'm gonna take it to a repair shop, unless there is a easy fix to this.
The display shows a specific pattern on the motherboard. According to the guide, it appears to feature Q-LED indicators, suggesting the CPU is red, the DRAM is yellow, the VGA is white, and the boot area is yellow-green.
Yes, I've verified that all front panel connectors are properly wired.
I used corsair's guide, the fan whirred briefly, and it emitted that clicking sound after I shorted the pins despite being turned off.
I activate the power button and the PSU responds, but the lights remain off.
Consider checking out a spare unit or a friend's PSU first to verify the problem.
Verify each connector is securely connected to the motherboard.
I don’t have access to devices with that level of hardware, and the person who could help is far away. :/ I believe a local PC shop is my best chance.
