Do NOT plug you HDD just try to boot from a Live USB Linux disk (Linux Mint Cinnamon will do the job) which you can create on a spare PC or a Laptop and check the rest of the components from Linux environment.

Anyway you can buy a new SATA SSD and try installing Windows over it. Your old HDD is probably dead and causing a short circuit to your new PSU.

Processor: Intel® Core™ i9-9900KF Processor
Motherboard: GIGABYTE Z390 GAMING X
Memory: 32 GB [16 GB x2] DDR4-3000 
Video Card: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER - 8GB GDDR6 - MSI VENTUS XS OC (VR-Ready)
Primary Hard Drive: 2TB WD Blue SATA SSD
 
So yesterday, my computer just shut down while gaming. After some checking I found the PSU burned out. 
 
I got a new PSU and if I only connect the 24 pin and CPU 8 pin and GPU PCIe cables, the computer will POST. However once I connect the rest of the cables to the PSU, a 4pin and SATA, the computer will no longer POST and the motherboard illumates the CPU LED status light.
 
I have tried replacing the cables and still nothing.
 
Any help will be appreciated.

Have you tried remounting the CPU?

Have not, would it still post without the sata 4 pins if the CPU needed reseating?

 

Ill go get some thermal paste and try it though.

Let me take that straight, when you connect the power to your SATA HDD your PC no longer post?
