I have tried another PSU (350W), no GPU... Still no power.. no fans on.. no nothing! So now I narrowed it down to the Motherboard only. I tried powering it without it in the case just the cpu, ram (one stick, tried changing the slots), and hdd. I am out of options... should I just get the motherboard replaced from newegg?
