Hi, my pc was running fine and I decided to upgrade my cooler master 212 Evo to a noctua nh-d15, however it would keep restarting when I booted it. I have now gone back to my cooler master 212 Evo and it still resarts when I try to boot it.

PCs specs:
Gigabyte z97p-d3
Cooler master 212 Evo
i5 4690k
Cosair CX500
16GB HyperX Fury
Asus Nvidia 960
1tb western digital
2tb western digital
120gb Sandisk SSD


Any help is appreciated thanks
 
Hi there Ben_95,

Does your system restart right after it boots up or after some time? Are there any error/beeping codes?

You can start with double checking the connection and the cables.
In case the issue persists, I believe you will need to do a BIOS reset: http://www.wikihow.com/Reset-Your-BIOS

Even if this does not solve the issue, you need to try running the system with the bare minimum, which means: only one stick of RAM, only your SSD, take out your GPU. If this sorts the issue out, you can try adding one component at a time. That way, you can narrow down the possible cause.

Let me know how this goes,
