Thanks for that but can you help with this?

I am using a Ryzen 5 1600 af on a Aorus B450 m

I just accidentally posted it in the wrong place the first time, in new here

Sorry, I just accidentally posted this in the wrong topic the first time

I built my first PC. After an hour of building this computer I was ready to install Windows do get to playing some Minecraft. I turned it on and it booted, I set my USB drive to boot so I can install Windows, then after I selected save and exit the PC turned off. I flipped the PSU switch off and on and tried to turn it on again but then none of the fans were spinning, an LED marked CPU flashed quickly and nothing happened. I tested each part to see what's the problem, GPU is working, CPU cooler is plugged in correctly, RAM has been tested and reseated multiple times, did the PSU paperclip test, front panel connectors are in their right place, CMOS has been cleared several times. Nothing I thought it would be a dumb idea to unplug the 8 pin CPU connector and when I did, it turned on? All fans were spinning (except the white case fan cuz I haven't connected it) and SSHD was active. Could it be the CPU is defective? Is the PSU defective? Did something in the mobo short out?
