Ahoy hoy!
I have a new build I’m tryin to cobble together but I can’t get it to post the first time.
I have a ASRock B650E Taichi M/B, Ryzen 7 7600x cpu, an EVGA 850w Gold, a MSI 2060, 32 gig of ram, 1tb SSD and a 1000gig HDD, all in a Fractal Torrent case. I’ve hooked everything up and can see the RGB and smart switches light up, but when I hit either power button I get no response.
I’ve reseated the cables, removed the GPU, reseated the ram, waited hours, and nothin, not even the fans kickin up. What Am I missin?
Update: sorry for the delay, works been crazy. The PSU has a tester so I was able to confirm the fans an PSU works. Unhooked everything and plugged it back in, same results.
Update 2: Electric Boogaloo: success! Thank you for all the help, culprit was either the power supply itself or the cables, but the fix was a new psu
On the off chance your front io buttons are broken, try bridging the contacts with a screwdriver?
Also, you may want to test your PSU by bridging the green wire to black, on the large 20 pin connector (disconnect first to be safe)
The board has a power button on it as well that also doesn’t respond, the RGB and buttons on the board light up though nothin
Pretty unlikely that the board button and the case button are both broken, you may have a brick on your hands.
Worth testing the PSU anyway, in case only one of the voltages is broken. But you’ll need a multimeter.
Are you sure you used the right number of standoffs underneigth? No shorts or anything?
There are 9 in the case, all at the eatx spots with the one in the center having a raised point to act as a guide for the rest
Have you tried a minimal build? Mobo, CPU, 1 stick of ram, nothing else?
Try a couple of the ram sticks, but only one at a time?
I still suspect you have a dead mono, but its worth a try in case something else is causing a short or something.
