Yeah, I doubted it was the CPU and since all the other parts of the motherboard were lighting up and the fans were all spinning, I jumped to the conclusion too fast that it was the CPU. Found out it was the motherboard because as soon as I reinstalled all of the parts into an ASUS B450 ROG, the CPU instantly became hot to stock temp. I faced another issue with drivers and my monitor refused to detect the GPU for a while before I installed NVIDIA drivers. Thanks for the suggestion!

I recently finished building my new PC I've been planning out for about a few months. After taking out the CPU fan and reinstalling it, my computer stops posting. The GPU, motherboard, all fans, and storage work, but I'm not too sure if it's because of my CPU or anything else that is causing it to stop working. All fans spin and all lights that are usually on light up, except for the power button on the front panel.

I updated all drivers from Device Manager and installed NVIDIA drivers so my monitor and computer could recognize that I had a GPU.
