PC not displaying

I recently just installed a new processor, I went from the AMD Ryzen 5 1600 to the AMD Ryzen 9 5950X. After I installed it and set everything back up, I turned on my PC and the gpu fans weren’t spinning like they usually when I start it up. Also it wasn’t displaying on my monitors. The monitors are on Standby mode so when the PC turns on the screen turns on with it. I don’t believe it’s my monitor bc my PS5 is also hooked up to these monitors and worked fine. I don’t believe it’s the cords bc I’ve tried multiple hdmis even brand new ones. I’ve also switched back to my last gpu thinking that my current one might’ve died but that one wasn’t working either. I’ve triple checked everything on the inside was inserted correctly and even unplugged my RAM sticks and swapped them around (cause I read that that worked for someone). I’ve checked to see if my motherboard (ASUS PRIME A320M-A) was compatible with my new processor and, unless I read it wrong, it was.
Could it be the power supply? I’m not well versed when it comes to the power supply and the numbers and voltage and stuff but I believe my power supply is 650W.
Anyone got any solutions bc it’s been 1 whole day without my PC and I’m going through withdrawals lol.
Thanks!

Is this a PCSpecialist machine? If so, could you post your full system specs?

A few more questions while I'm here:
  • How old is the PC?
  • What BIOS version are you currently on?
  • Did you update your BIOS before installing the new CPU?

It is not. My apologies. Wasn’t aware this was a whole pc company, just thought it was a random pc forum lol. Didn’t really do much delving into the site.
The PC is about 4 years old.
I don’t know the BIOS. Idk if there’s a way to check without the PC cause I can’t see anything lol.
and no I don’t believe I updated the bios before installing the new cpu.

As it isn't a PC specialist machine, I'm afraid we can't help, try an open forum such as Toms Hardware
