MSI Z270 gaming pro carbon
I7-7700k
Msi geforce Gtx1070
Pc power and cooling ZX series 1000watt
Corsair vengeance 32gb ddr4 3200

As stated my Ezdebug CPU light comes on as soon as I turn the pc on, I get no signal to any monitor, the mobo seems to power up and I hear the fans on my gpu, the ram LEDs work also, so Ive been focusing on the CPU, resat it a couple times and still no luck(the pins looked fine when checked. Adjusted the cpu power supply and still no luck, is my only option to exchange either my processor or my mobo at this point?

Might just be a short.
Unplug ac cord, press power button on case for 30s.
Remove anything not needed for boot (fans except cpu) incl case power/led/audio/usb.

Plug ac cord in and "short" the pins for power (case button) with a paper clip and see if it boots.

Would also try a different psu, just to make sure..
