Hi there!
i recently bought a gaming desktop, but i could not get it to boot(sounds like the PSU cuts after 0.5 seconds after i try to power the desktop up).
Anyway ive tried everything, Barebone boot(CPU, Graphics card, RAM outside case), removing the CMOS battery, paperclip test on PSU, also ive checked the BIOS update the MOBO requires it seems like its up to date aswell.
I figured the MOBO was DOA(i found it cracked at the top right corner of the board).
The green light on the Motherboard is on when i power up the PSU, but there's no CPU light, i find all this quite strange, i figured the MOBO made the PSU cut the power to save the components, but after i try booting the system the green light on the MOBO is still active.
What are your thoughts here?
Specs:
Asus Sabertooth 990FX R2.0
AMD FX 9370 8-core 4.4 ghz
EVGA Gtx 780 SC ACX cooler
Corsair RM750
Crucial Ballistix ELITE 1866Mhz 4x2gb
Cooler Master Seidon 240m
