So I just came back from a 2 month vacation, I bought a new CPU (AMD-FX6300) and I installed it on my pc. After that I put everything back up and I booted the system, it was running fine for the first few seconds then booom I heard a loud POP sound and my PC turned off. I looked inside and I see no mobo light I tried to booted up again but nothing happens. I went ahead and researched and people said that my psu was dead. I went on and opened my PSU (thermaltake TR2 RX 750 watt modular) and I see no burt pcb or poped caps and I do not smell anything burnt (note: before doing this I did the paperclip thing green to black wire and the psu did not respond.) I went to see if the fuse was burnt it looked perfectly fine after I removed it. I have quadruple check my mother board and GPU if I had a poped cap but everything looked fine.something here is suspicious
