     @Humpleupagus @deprecated_ii Motherboards don't have much of those error lights nor those POST codes.

     @deprecated_ii @Humpleupagus If it's an EVGA PSU, they've been fucking with the cable design and you can end up sending 12v to 3.3v devices, frying them instantly. May need to take a multimeter to it.

     I'd carefully inspect and even replace the cables. I haven't had psu issues, but in my studio, 99% of the time, a perfectly good looking cable is the issue.
     
     When tracing a signal, and unless the chain allows otherwise, I always assume the hardware is fine, and the issue is a cable, and swap those out first.

     @Humpleupagus when I plugged it in I had motherboard lights, but the first power button press those lights went away and now it's completely dead
     
     I didn't make any mistakes in assembly and I don't smell anything so without more testing my best guess is the PSU has an internal fault
