while playing bf1, my pc died, and would not turn on. I've checked all connections and none are loose. tried disconnecting various components to no avail, not even a beep. i hot-wired the psu and confirmed it isn't the problem. i think my mobo died but Im not sure, anyone have an idea or experience with a similar scenario.
mobo: MSI 970A-G43
cpu: amd fx 8300
ram 2x8gb team group
psu: logisys 575 watt
gpu: stock msi rx 480
 
rx 480 recommended power supply 500 watts

LOGISYS Computer PS575XBK 575W

Output+3.3V@38A, +5V@40A, +12V@25A

compare to Corsair 500 watt

Output+3.3V@25A, +5V@20A, +12V@38A

As you can see the Logisys wattage is heavily weighted on the +5v and +3.3v lines. The +12v line is rated at 25 amps. (12 * 25= 300 watts). If you think the Logisis power supply can power that video card, then continue using it.
