PC became broken yesterday. Symptoms started appearing few days ago when PC started to freeze while I was watching videos full screen. Complete freeze and unresponsive, cursor doesn't move, no sound, only solution was to reboot. But that was only a temporary solution. Freezes keep occurring even outside of watching videos, just freezes when I'm AFK. I just kept rebooting and at one point reboots just doesn't restart PC just shuts it off. And power and reboot button doesn't work, so i turned Power Supply switch off and on. Before this happened, out of nowhere, pc shuts off without warning. I wonder if it was the constant reboots due to freezes that might have damaged the PSU.
Now, after the freeze yesterday and I tried to reboot, complete nothing. Only the fans and lights run when i try to turn on the computer. No display on boot on monitor, but I'm pretty sure the monitor works. Might be virus?
And, I recently installed PCI wireless adapter card and 2x4GB ram a month ago, and it showed no problems; not sure if those two might be conflicting with anything
specs:
msi radeon rx 480 8gb
amd eightcore fx8320
m5a97 le r2.0
cx430 psu
kingston 2x4GB g.skills ripjaws 2x4GB RAM
pc fairly old, had it for 5-6 years
also, i did overclocked CPU to 4ghz from 3.5, but after few freezes i was paranoid so i went into BIOS and resetted to defaults. and i think that when pc started to not boot on anymore.
Still not sure if the problem is Motherboard, CPU, PSU, RAM, or virus.
I tried testing if MB works yesterday by removing all ram and video card and tried booting after resetting CMOs and MB did beep; so i assume it still functional.
Please, i require some assistance to determine the causes and if there is a possible fix? maybe mb,cpu, and psu replacements?
thank you
