Just set together a new computer,
MB: Asrock B850 Riptide Wifi
CPU: Ryzen 7 9700

And it doesnt start. The leds are lighting up, all the fans are going, except GPU.
The red and yellow lights on the MB are lit, so tried to update the flashbios with 3.20 but no change. I had no jumper to short the CMOS, is it hidden somewhere or is it missing? And when I tried to reset the CPU I noticed two pins slightly bent, not next to each other but on two different spots - and I was so careful but didn't look as I placed it it the first time that they were OK from the start.
Is it broken then? Can it have been like that from the start? No way to fix?
