i had a ryzen board since last march and during christmas time, we moved and it stopped working. so i got another one, and it was DOA. very angry about this. i waited until now and i got me another board, that was also DOA. i really find it hard to believe that all of these boards are DOA. and its not the PSU cause the 2 i have power on other boards. all i have is the CPU and front panel and speaker and still nothing. is there anything im missing?

R5 1500x
ASrock A320M-HDV
Gigabyte A329M-s2h
MSI A320m grenade

That other PC might not have the power requirements of your ryzen. A PSU can degrade before failing entirely, so it's possible that it doesn't have enough voltage to kickstart the board.
Other than that, I guess it's a bad board. Make sure you ground yourself before touching sensitive parts.

To see if it works properly yes. Not all motherboards require CPU fan installed, but some do and you should install one if you are testing the motherboard. CPU will overheat in a matter of seconds without it and it may not boot properly to bios.

It will definitely not boot to bios without RAM.

To test the board you want to boot to bios.

i can tell you 100% that doesnt sound right. also, i just hooked up the RAM, GPU, CPU, M.2 SSD, and PSU all correctly and nothing. no led, no fans moving, no heat, no display, and no beeps.

I think you need to listen to what people have said and do as they ask you to do.
No one mentioned putting anything else into your computer.
Failing that, pay someone to repair it.

Are you sure you have the front-panel pwr button wires installed correctly? You can try the screw-driver method to short the two pins that the button would be installed on, it would be the same as pressing the on button.

here is the thing, motherboard will power on without anything else but a PSU. if does not, then very much seems dead. for some reason you guys think im trying to boot and i am not. and i did test it with just ram, CPU, and PSU and still no fan movement

What about the cord from wall to PSU?
You have both power rails plugged into the board securely from the PSU? (cpu and mobo cables).
Have you tried taking it out of the case and building externally on a cardboard box to rule out case grounding issues?
What about having someone try your CPU in their rig? Just because it gets warm doesn't mean it works.

i have tested the Powersupply and it will power on another PC. i have made sure all the PSU cables where correctly which is alittle bit of an issue. and i have it outside the case the entire time (mainly cause i havent got the case yet XD)
