is the ram plugged into the same colored slots? looks like yours should be the red ones.

I WILL find your ITX build thread, and I WILL recommend the SIlverstone Sugo SG13B

 

Primary PC:

i7 8086k - EVGA Z370 Classified K - G.Skill Trident Z RGB - WD SN750 - Jedi Order Titan Xp - Hyper 212 Black (with RGB Riing flair) - EVGA G3 650W - dual booting Windows 10 and Linux - Black and green theme, Razer brainwashed me.

Draws 400 watts under max load, for reference.

lol where's Linus when you need him ?? I've tried everything that I can think of 

I don't think mr. tech tips himself personally handles tech support on the forum.

You said the motherboard has LEDs to debug? what codes are you getting?

Have you booted without a GPU yet?

sorry the flashing leds theres 4 small ones the first 2 are flashing 

can you use commas and periods? This is a mess to read.

Anyway, is there a label by any of the LEDs in really small font?

Wow, that's a huge bummer. Did you attempt switching ram slots after repairing the bent pin?
