Hi guys,
Since this is my first time asking for solution, please forgive my bad english or lack of knowledge
My PC contains the following parts:
CPU: Intel E2200 Socket 775 (very old one, i know)
Mainboard: Gigabyte P31-DS3L
PSU: Corsair Builder VS950 (my cousin upgrades his psu so he sold this to me for 10$)
2 days ago while using the power suddenly gone down, i tried to restart but it only run a few minute then the issue happens again.
I've tested a few thing and narrow down that it's either psu or mobo so i brought the psu to the store and asked them to check. Turn out the psu is fine (my cousin brought it in March/2016) so they tell me it could be the mobo's problem.
When testing again at home i found out that when plugging the 4-pin cable to power the CPU, my PC goes down after few minutes. If i don't then everything (cpu, fan, vga, psu's fan) runs smoothly even for hours.
What should i do to fix this issue? I'm very appreciated for any advice since i can't buy a new mobo (it has been 9 years)
Thanks in advance.
