Hi all,
I'm having some major problems with my computer that happened at the blink of an eye.
The other day I was running Overwatch (a pretty light game) on LOW settings and my PC was running at about 50-55C. All of a sudden, my PC crashed. I go to turn it back on and the screen stays black. The fans and such turn on, but the GPU fans didn't. So I think 'Shit, my GPU is f*cked'. So to confirm I turned off PC and removed GPU and changed my input to onboard graphics. Not even my onboard graphics would display BIOS or boot. So I tried removing my RAM one at a time and followed that whole procedure, and still nothing. No beeps or anything. So I decide to buy a new MOBO because I inferred the problem started there seeing as how there was no BIOS (and this MOBO I had at the time was cheap and poorly made). So I get my new MOBO today, it can work with my GPU and all the specs align and such. So I began assembling the PC, and for shits I plugged in the GPU as well and Viola! The GPU Fans worked again (although I know that does not necessarily mean the GPU is working). So after double checking that everything was plugged in correctly.... nothing. Black screen. No BIOS. So I checked the monitor... the monitor still works. So I say "Okay, maybe the GPU is fried". I unplug and remove GPU and try onboard graphics. STILL, nothing. So I clear my CMOS, ram test again.. yada yada. Still, everything runs but no BIOS. I followed the mega guide and still nothing. I'm at my wits end.
I would appreciate any help... I really hope it's not my CPU that's doing this. Especially with the fact that my GPU may or may not work as well....
Here are my specs
AMD FX 8core 3.5gz
Corsair CX600 PSU
MSI 760GMA-p34 MOBO
16g (2 sticks) DDR3 Ram (1 Ripjaw, 1 Patriot)
AMD R9 270 GPU
160SSD // 1TB HDD
I appreciate any and all help
