Which CPU? Which MOBO? Was it working before? Full System Specs?

I will recommend an NHu12s (or an NHd15 (maybe)) for your PC build. Quote or @聽me @Prodigy_Smit聽for me to see your replies.

Its most probably dead. Can you send some pics of the CPU and socket?

What lights show up on the motherboard? ASUS motherboards have debug lights.

Im not sure whether i am seeing this correctly, but it looks like there may be some bent pins along one of the edges of the cpu? - however i can鈥檛 be 100% sure.

Also, have you made sure all your psu cables are plugged in correctly?

I hope this helps 馃檪

Those aren't the lights we're looking for, they're located right of the DIMM slots, there should be 3 that light up when attempting to post to show the potential issue as to why it won't boot.聽

The debug LED should be on the right side of the board, near the upper corner.
