   Hello everyone,

I am experiencing trouble with a brand-new X470 Taichi Ultimate.

Here is the setup (all new):
Mainboard: ASRock X470 Taichi Ultimate, AM4
CPU: Ryzen 3700X
SSD: Samsung 970 Evo Plus M.2 2280 PCIe (1 TB)
RAM: 32GB (2x16) Patriot Viper 4 DDR4-3200 DIMM CL16-18-18-36 Dual Kit
GPU: MSI GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER GAMING X TRIO
Power: Corsair RM650, 650W
CPU fan: beQuiet Dark Rock 4 Pro

The Taichi Ultimate does not react to the power button at all (neither on the case nor on the mainboard itself). Nothing happens -- no fans spinning, no lights blinking, no nothing.

I checked the mainboards's and GPU's power connection multiple times, removed everything but the CPU (incl. fan) and tried switching out the RAM (one stick in different slots). I always got the same result --> nothing.

I am completely stumped on this one.

Could someone let me know if at least the components (especially RAM) are supposed to work with the board?

Any tipps? I am getting the feeling that either mainboard or power supply are broken.

Thank you very much in advance!
