I need a wizard

I changed out my case fans (Montech X3 Mesh) for fans that actually work(no exact model but Arctic) because I was thermal throttling on games that are NOT demanding at all. I now am unable to boot, I got it to work yesterday with 2 ram sticks(current config everything else didn't work besides one stick in 2nd from the left.) I tried again with 4 today and I'm back to nothing, I had to reset CMOS and that's how I got it to work yesterday but I need some pro opinions so I know what to replace or upgrade. I'm assuming it's a power issue.

MOBO = MSI MAG B550 TOMAHAWK

RAM = Kingston Fury 2x8 3200

CPU = R5 5600X

PSU = Seasonic 500W 80+

GPU = GeForce GTX 1660 super

Also idk if it helps or not but previously the fans (besides 2 topside and cpu fan) ran off of a molex chain so maybe they're drawing too much powah? Idk
