Hello! Thanks in advance for your time... I've done a lot of troubleshooting with my build and I think I've got it narrowed down pretty well, but at my wits end in regards to what next steps to take. To distill it down... my current state is a motherboard seated with RAM + CPU + NH-D15. When I test it outside of the case I'm able to boot up just fine (in fact I flashed the BIOS to support 13th gen already and installed Windows...) But the second I put it in my case and reconnect the Motherboard Power + CPU power and attempt to power up, it won't POST. My initial guess of the issue is that there's a short somewhere between the motherboard and the case. But the case comes with the preinstalled standoffs which all appear to be correct and I can't spot anything strange.. It's not the front panel connectors because I'm using a screwdriver to power up. Anyone have any ideas? Components: Corsair 4000D Airflow i5-13600K Noctua NH-D15 MSI ZPRO 690-A WiFi DDR4 Corsair RMx 750W EDIT - In the process of obtaining pictures I shifted some wires around that may have been grazing the motherboard and it's working now... Disregard.
