Hello,

We just built a new 1150 computer (4670k i5, asus z87-a). Ran fine for about 6 hours then shut down on its own. It won't boot again (fans spin once).

Tried removing the cpu, and the computer does power on (with the red light to signal no cpu) with the fans continuing to spin. It won't power as soon as the cpu is inserted though.

Is my mobo or my cpu dead then?

Thanks a lot.
