Hello,
Last friday i built my own computer. After a couple days and a mild overclock it has already stopped working. I dont know how or when it shut down, because I was downloading all my steam games while I was asleep. Anyway i want to send either the motherboard or the cpu to the supplier and get a functioning replacement.
The only real issue i'm having right now is that i dont know where/what the problem is causing the pc to malfunction.
I have an attached link of the video I made to show you what happens when i give power to the pc.

Btw the I/O button does nothing right now.
Thank you for reading and responding.

Does it have a speaker on it? When this happens, the speaker would beep a certain amount of times. These beep codes mean different things depending on the manufacturer of the board.

Also, if you have a mouse or keyboard hooked up to it, do the lights come on at all?

It your power supply that failed. I seen those fan death twitches a lot.
I would rma the power supply first. Also in the video you have your gpu in the wrong video slot. The main video slot the one next to the CPU.

thanks for the rapid response,

No the only sound it makes comes from the gpu powering up.

There is no response coming from the keyboard or the mouse, but that might be because I turned the lights off when I went to sleep. I do assume it has an in-built speaker, but I dont know where it is, and if it does exist, its not making any sound.

(RMA) or return goods authorization (RGA) is a part of the process of returning a product in order to receive a refund, replacement, or repair during the product's warranty period. The purchaser of the product must contact the manufacturer (or distributor or retailer)

The speaker should be visable, it connects to the front panel connectors and is usually a 4-pin, and make sure your not connecting the case audio port cable thinking its the case speaker.

EDIT: sorry didn't realize this post was from last year
