Hello all,
I came home a couple days ago and found my CPU fan not running, and not getting any video on my monitor. Uh oh, immediately shut it off. When on, the mobo lights work, everything fires up besides the cpu fan and there is no video. Here is what I have tried:
RAM in all kinds of different configurations
A different PSU hooked up to the MB
Different 4 pin headers for the cpu fan
Different heatsink fans in both 4 pin headers (My ram cooler was in the other 4 pin - which also wasnt spinning)
A different video card in the slot (still no dice)
I've pretty much narrowed it down to the mobo or the PSU (possibly overvolted stuff? 600W OCZ Modular)
Video card is a brand new 6870.
I ordered a new ram/cpu/mobo combo since it was time for an upgrade anyway, but I'd like to figure out what is dead so I can sell what works. I'm afraid to plug new stuff into my current PSU however, I don't know if it has gone insane.
Any thoughts?
