I installed the motherboard directly to the case without the standoff screws. I turned the computer on without any problem and installed the OS. Had it running about a 20 minutes or something before it turned itself off with no warning or sound.
I tried booting up the computer again after mounting the motherboard to the standoff screws in the case, but it won't turn on properly now. I can see all the fans (psu, gpu and psu) starting up and winding down a couple of times before the computer really comes to life for only a minute or two before turning off again.
Is the motherboard completely fried? Or is there something I can do to salvage it?
