Computer wont turn on!! Not the PSU!
chnchapters
I just recently built a new computer and it was running perfectly.
AMD Phenom 2 x4 970 Black edition
Gigabyte 78LMT-S2P Motherboard matx
500w power supply (cheap off brand)
$19.99 cheap case
8gb ddr3 ram (4gb x2)
Raedon HD 6750 1gb graphics card
500gb HDD pulled from a new compaq PC
Then during gameplay and randomly the computer would just turn off and not start back up for awhile. I didn't want to spend time figuring out the problem and just wanted my new computer to work so I went out and bought a new graphics card and PSU...
So now I have a 600w decent psu (that i know works)
and a Nvidia Geforce GTX 550 TI 1 gb graphics card
The computer worked fine for a while then I picked it up and moved it to a diofferent house. Now it wont turn on. After trying to start it a bunch of times it finally booted up but then shut off 5 min later like we lost power.
Now nothing happens, the psu fan doesnt spin, no lights come on, its just as the PC has no power coming from the wall.
I swapped PSUs and cases still nothing. What could this be? Im going crazy? Did my motherboard die somehow?

Its not the powersupply because I swapped it out with a new one and it still doesnt work.
I changed the cord and tried another wall socket, there is power.
I tried starting it with just the cpu, one stick of ram, still nothing
I rechecked all the connections because I took the pc completley apart and rebuilt it.
