I havently built my first computer and after turning it on it struggles to boot, constantly restarting itself every few seconds, with all fans etc working. After trying for so long and researching as much as I could, I was hoping I could find out the problem on here.
So here's what I found:
If I leave it unplugged for a while and retry, it stays on for longer, but eventually giving up and restarting itself repeatedly.
Probably the most important thing I discovered is that when I unplug the 8 pin and turn it on, it stays on without restarting, and I tried it a few times to make sure.
I have tried a lot of solutions people have suggested and removing the 8 pin is the only one which made a difference, I'm just not sure whether this means a faulty psu, cpu, or motherboard.
Any help is appreciated
