Buy a motherboard speaker,install it and tell us if you here any beeps.

Also try  to see if the power supply works,does anything power on?,

Does the power supply work with the paper clip method? (be careful to not shor something you should not)

Done with test!

And yes, put in a speaker and see what it tells us.

i think personally that it might be gpu, try unplugging the gpu and other unessacary things

If my motherboard has no lights on it’s probably my motherboard right

It probably is. Not getting power from the PSU but the GPU is? Doesn't seem right to me.
