Hi guys

So recently I have been having issues relating to either the mobo or the PSU. I am not entirely sure which is at fault here. I have a custom built system with following:

GA-Z77X-UD5H 1155 mobo
Gigabyte GTX 1070
i7 3770k @ 4.3Ghz with a cooler master Hyper 212X cooler
730w Raidmax PSU

Was all working fine until I recently shipped my pc to my new home, don't know if they couriered it with too much force. First the GPU wasn't recognised but after taking it out and putting it in a couple of times it picked up, and now the computer itself is switching on with all fans running (inc. GPU fans) but no display and no peripherals working. The CPU fan 4 pin on the mobo doesn't seem to be working as it runs then slows to a halt the computer reboots itself. If I plug the CPU fan into another system fan 4 pin it works, but the computer still reboots.

I am thinking there is not enough power being sent through the system or the mobo is slowly failing.

Any ideas?

If you did ship the whole PC, then you will get this type the problem if the couriers do not handle properly. Usually you should remove the GPU, cpu cooler, HDD at least before you ship out the PC.

And now you may try this: disassembling any thing from the case, then assembling the whole PC again, that just make sure all the cables and hardware are connected properly, but don't install the gtx1070 yet. Clear the CMOS by the jumper, boot the PC by using the onboard iGPU.

What happens? 1) If the PC can boot, then install the gtx1070 and boot the PC again. But you are better to buy other PSU asap, the 730w Raidmax PSU is not the good PSU for your gtx1070. If the PC does the same. the PSU or MB pcie slot may have problem.

You can test...

You can test the gtx1070 in other pcie slot to see the PC works or not too.
