About a month ago I was playing Battlefield 3 on my computer when all of a sudden my computer had turned off, I thought it must've overheated ( it was like a 38 Degree Celsius day ) I let it cool with a cold fan blowing on it and every 10 or so minutes i felt it til it was cold I proceeded to turn on my computer.. nothing happened when I pressed the power button
I took it apart and put it back together and still nothing had happened, I googled around and it said that my motherboard was blown so I was like oh alright, no big deal because my brother let him borrow his old computer which I then put my harddrive, graphics card and one of sticks of ram. Around about a week ago I decided to see if my quad core cpu still worked so I put it into the current computer I was using, It worked so I was happy.
Today I was playing GTA IV when this computer had turned off on me I quickly took it apart putting a fan on it hoping it was just over heated, I cooled every part down and I put the computer back together and the same issue. The LED light on the motherboard is constantly lit up when the power cord is plugged into the power supply.
I need to know what parts are gone cause I'm on a really tight budget of around $150, am I better off just waiting and saving up to get a new cpu, motherboard and graphics card?
