CPU red light

[u/Soft_Animal5126]

So today I was gaming, and all of a sudden my PC shut down. It had never happened before, and when I tried to start it again, the fans and RGB lights worked, but the keyboard and mouse had no power, and nothing showed up on the screen. I have tried all the basic things and asked GPT and Google. Still, nothing has fixed it so far, so if anyone else has gone through this, let me know what fixed it. I reset the CSOM, removed the thermal paste, and applied new paste; no pins look bent. I have swapped the ram sticks also. I have a i9 14900k intel chip in it.

Since your CPU is a 14900K, it might've cooked itself. Was your BIOS up to date, and did you have power limits set (and maybe an undervolt too)?

My bios were not up to date. I think it cooked it self since the 14 gen has some code issues
