@Ryuikkothanks for trying to help. The problem was my own stupidity. Moral of the story, don’t drink kids. 
This morning I swapped the 12900k back into the DDR4 board. My friend that was over reminded me I mashed a couple pins trying to get the socket cover back on. That’s why it was no post on the original board. 
New board. If an AIO comes with rubber dampers for the motherboard USE THEM and don’t go all drunk heavy equipment mechanic tight on the standoffs. I left the rubbers on the old board. I ended up with this

Once I happened to take the standoffs and found that I did the two hour round trip to Anchorage before Best Buy closed and got the Gigabyte Aorus Elite AX. Threw all the parts in it and after a bit of memory training it booted. Enabled XMP and a couple server style reboots while trying to post I’ve got XMP out of the box on 4 sticks of 16 GB Vengeance 5200. 
Turns out it was operator error all along.

Evening all. I’m thinking I’ve got DOA ram or motherboard. Hoping someone catches something I’ve missed. In a fit of drinking I did not test this out side of the case before installing it. Specs are in my signature except an Asus z690-a and 4x16 Corsair Vengeance DDR5 5200. 
when I try to boot I get stuck on the dram led. No combination of ram, more or less mounting pressure on the cooler or clearing CMOS seems to get me through post. Motherboard was new off Amazon and DDR5 was marked used because boxes were open on eBay. Traces didn’t have any markings on them from going in slots when I received them. 
one thing I noticed was that the ram goes in a lot easier than DDR4. 
Any ideas?

I'm not actually trying to be as grumpy as it seems.

I will find your mentions of Ikea or Gnome and I will /s post.

Ddr5 is a pain at the least to run 4 sticks. Try running 2 or 1 stick and see if you can get a post

I have. I’ve run all 4 sticks separately in A2 and then A1 in case it was a bad channel. I know the CPU doesn’t have a bad channel 4 sticks work with DDR4 even with mismatched LPX. 
I did put one stick in after clearing CMOS and let it try to start while I was typing OP on mobile in case memory training took a while with no luck.

Interestingly enough if I try this cpu back in my Aero G that it lived in for a while with DDR4 it doesn’t post here either anymore. It goes back and forth between cpu and dram errors.

New board. If an AIO comes with rubber dampers for the motherboard USE THEM and don’t go all drunk heavy equipment mechanic tight on the standoffs. I left the rubbers on the old board. I ended up with this

Oh wow. Those cpu standoffs looks Like they melted off. At least I'm glad you found the problem
