Building my first pc im using a

Msi motherboard B350 pc mate and a AMD ryzen 5 1600X

On the mother board the cpu light has come on red, ive taken the cpu out and checked if its in correctly, and if all of the pins are straight, everything looks to be pluged in correctly and all of the fans are spinning

I have a 600W ve quiet power supply, a 1080, 2x8gb RAM, 2TB hardrive and a 240gb SSD

It may be that the motherboard needs a bios update to first support RyZen 5 CPUs as most only shipped a couple of months ago with only Ryzen 7 support before Ryzen 5 was even released.
