Ok this should be an easy one for you guys.
One morning I turned off my computer to restart it. Then it shut down normally. I press the power button and nothing happens. No lights or fan noises or anything.
I figured it was my PSU because I can hear this weird high pitched electrical interference noise when I flip the switch on the PSU.
So I pull out the PSU, use a paper clip to connect the power line and a ground line on the mobo connector. The PSU still works. The fan spins and everything. When I connect it back to my comp, it still wont turn on. It seems the fan is really weak when it spins (maybe bceause its not powering a system and there no load on the PSU? idk?)
So what do you guys think it is? Should I blow $130 on a new PSU? or should I blow $600 on a new i7 system. ($600 dollars I dont have.)
