I recently upgraded my computer:
- changed from a heat sink to a corsair H115i water cooler
- changed from AMD Sapphire R9 290X 4GB Graphics Card to 2 Nvidia GTX 1080s
- and upgraded from 16 to 32 FB of ram
Now, my issue is that when I try to turn on my computer it turns on for a few seconds (no more than a minute) then shuts off, turns back on again for a few seconds then back off and it keeps repeating. I don't even get a chance to get to the BIOS. I have read post online with similar issues and have tried them with no solution.
I have read it could be a ram issue and took out the ram and reinserted it and even tried 1 at a time - didn't work. (I change the configuration of my ram cards compared to the first time, not sure if that would be an issue)
I looked to reset the cmos but I don't see a cap to move from the pins on my mobo to reset.
I read it could be a power supply issue but I was using my computer earlier in the day before upgrading and there was not issue.
Would it be something with changing my heatsink to water cooler? Or changing from AMD to Nvidia GPU? Please help.
Here are the rest of my specs:
Intel i7 5820K LGA 2011 Processor
Gigabyte Intel X99-UD4 Motherboard
NZXT Phantom 820 Full Tower
Seagate Barracuda 1TB HDD
Kinston HyperX 120GB SSnD
Corsair Vengeance RAM 4x8GB
Corsair HX1000i Power Supply
