I have replaced the PSU and i assured that the outlet is working. I connected the 24 pin and the 8 pin EPS to the mainboard. That should be enough right?

Update: I bought a new Ryzen 5 1600 but nothing changed. No reaction at all. I then have read something about BIOS updates. That sometimes a update is required for the mainboard to recognize the CPU. Could the BIOS be a problem or is it still a hardware issue?

If anyone still has an idea what to do here i'd be very happy. Otherwise I'm going to buy a new CPU.

I measured each current output manually and everything looked okay. So I dont think the PSU is the problem.

Thank you for the link. The pins are perfectly straight now, but the behaviour hasnt changed. Does this mean the CPU is fully dead?

No, sadly not. Would straighten them help?

It does have 2 very slightly bent pins.

Hey guys I just built a computer but it does not post nor do any fans move. Every component except the CPU has been swapped out. I thought that in case of a hardware failure the computer still tries to boot and would fail or give me POST codes, is this actually the case?
