So I built my PC about 4 months ago, no dust and it worked great, last week I moved my pc and plugged in a new hard drive and it surged, I ended up just having To unplug the PSU and press the power button to drain it and it worked fine after, anyways a week later, (Thursday) I turn on my PC and open chrome suddenly one the the fans (my thought PSU) revs really loud and the PC shuts off without warning, (span of 3 minutes) I let it cool for a while searching for ways to turn it back on (because it didn't turn back on) nothing seemed hot but I let it rest just incase, I ended up concluding my PSU gave way because of the surge last week, (evga 600w bronze psu) I have a gtx 1070ftw and maybe somehow the wattage maxed out the PSU and it gave way, anyways today (Saturday) I go out and buy a new PSU (750w gold evga) and plus it all in and it's still not working, now I'm scared cause I really hope it's nothing expensive, anyways maybe I didn't plug all the cables in but is there anything at all I can do before I bring it in for a diagnostic check?
