We need the specs and pictures of your build, if possible

Does the box of the motherboard state that it's 2000 or 3000 gen ready? A320 boards are first gen, while the 2200G is second gen, so the BIOS can potentially be too old.

It says it's AMD RYZEN 3000 DESKTOP READY

The BIOS should be up to date then. What are the symptoms of the non-start?

Do any fans light up and spin? Also, that motherboard has LEDs that help point to what is causing issues. Are any of these LEDs lit up? They're just above the 24 pin connector.

@Fasauceome Any idea if a dead CMOS battery would cause fans to act weird too or no? I'm wondering because of the potential age of the board (OP, not saying it's not brand new if it is, it could have sat on a shelf for a while)

I had another one lying around and i tried it but still nothing that one could also be dead but what should i do then?

I doubt that would happen, worst symptoms of a dead battery tend to be no saving BIOS settings and wrong internal clock.

 

If the fans twitch and nothing happens, no lights etc, the PSU feels like the most likely culprit. Whether it's dead or something is hooked up incorrectly is a different matter.

I've tried the paperclip method and it turned on then and i made sure that the 2 main cables are plugged in all the way

it's possible something isn't inserted all the way. possibly ram, or CPU.

 

Also, is this system assembled outside the case, on a cardboard box?

see if reinserting the CPU and taking some of the ram out changes anything.

I've tried that a few times and nothing has changed

then I would start by guessing defective components. Either returning to the seller and getting a replacement or starting the RMA process with AMD and MSI would be the way to go.
