PC not turning on

Sorry if this is not the right place to post this.

Partlist: 

 

Decided to upgrade to Ryzen and bought a R5 3600. I initially had bought a b450 board and when I put my PC together nothing would turn on, no fans, cpu fans, LEDs nothing. I thought it was a dead board so I got refunded and then bought an MSI MPG gaming plus x570 board. I'm still having the same issue. I have all the front panel connectors plugged in correctly, all the power plugs are in correctly, and the CPU is seated properly. The motherboard does seem to be getting power because the flash bios button gives me 3 flashes of LED. I checked with one stick of ram at a time and in different slots but nothing works so I doubt its the ram. CPU pins are not bent. Could anyone help or provide advice?

Is the psu cables fully plugged in? Is the psu switched on? Is the power plug switched on? Did you plug in the front panal cables correctly?

Yes, everything is plugged in correctly and the psu is switched on

If it's not turning on at all then either something isn't getting power or the power switch isn't hooked up properly. Have you tried shorting the power pins on the motherboard?

Shorted the pins, no luck. Just find it really weird that the flash bios button gives flashes lights when nothing else worked.

Everything is connected properly, double checked it. Even tried to start it out of the case with no luck.
