So I've built my PC and I've been really happy with it. What's been happening lately is that the PC would randomly just turn off, immediately. This often happened while I accidentally kicked or touched the PSU.

Today this happened again, and as I wiggled the power cable the lights started to go on and off as if the PC was turning off and on, after that, it just didn't turn on anymore, I press the power button... Nothing.

Here's some stuff I did:

- I tested the power supply and the lights on my GPU turn off when it's plugged in.

- I tested another PSU from my old rig (that works on my old rig) but it just does not boot even though the GPU light is on.

- So right now I've removed the GPU from my build and I'm using one stick of RAM that's been put into the closest slot to the CPU.

Stuff you should know:

- The original PSU was a Corsair RM650X but right now I'm using a RM750i (with the cables from the 650X)


I'm afraid the motherboard may be bust, and I have no clue what to do at this point, any help?
