So, my newly buildt computer, will only start sometimes.
When I press the power on button on the case, things may start up and work just fine. But often, when I press the power on button, I see the lights flash¨for a half second, and the fans spins for a second. And that's it.
My PSU is a corsair HX 850. I think, this issue may be the motherboard or the CPU too, but since everything works smooth when things want to start up, I lean more towards the PSU. I really don't think it's the CPU, because then I would have got error I guess, when booting. And the mobo seems to work very good too. So, is this a dead mobo or a dead PSU? And how can I really test the PSU? The paperclip test? A multimeter? Help! D:
