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

Remove everything but the PSU, motherboard, and CPU. Everything, including RAM, fans, front USB, power button, etc. Then short the power-on pin to ground.

Also try testing the PSU independently as mentioned in the other comment by shorting green to black.

Used the tester that came with it on the PSU separately, everything turned on
