Have you checked with one ram stick at a time in every slot? If out of two ram sticks one is faulty then too the system will not post & cpu & ram led will remain red.
Which processor was it?
PC boots up, no video output

1st time in my life came to know about Intel processor failed/bad/dead , except recently 13/14 Gen issue
Yes, I checked with individual RAM (both alternately) in all 4 slots, one by one. Still issue persisted - CPU and RAM led on mobo constantly ON.
Update -
Received Asus Prime h610M - E D4 yesterday, reassembled - PC working now. CPU, RAM, SSD all other components are functioning.
Only Asrock B660 Steel Legend motherboard was faulty.
now will have to see about Asrock RMA, they take products for RMA by hand, not by parcel/courier (not sure) and nearest RMA centre is atleast 400KMs.

I think it's high time people should stop buying AsRock products. Their shoddy quality components have become more apparent in recent years. I still remember how their 'Taichi' line of motherboards were the gold standard. Not anymore.
Your issue was almost replicated by one of Greg's videos yesterday, from his 'Fix or Flop' series. The user had a X570 Steel Legend and it had also gone kaput out of nowhere, especially when playing a couple of years old game like Watch Dogs 2.
I hadn,t played any game or any thing thats will strain pc components for past few months, just regular officer stuff when it died down.
Will certailny avoid Asrock products.
