Ok so this is the first time I've made a custom PC where I haven't had ALL the components ready to build straight away (I don't have the processor, GPU, optical drive and HDD yet but I have the case, mobo and PSU.)
I have the mobo, case fans etc. and everything else all hooked up. That is, without the components I do not yet have.
When I power on the computer (just to check case fan connections), the PSU starts for about two seconds then stops. It then pauses for 5 seconds or so and powers on again for another 2. This continues as long as the machine is on.
I'm hoping this isn't a power supply issue but rather the system failing POST because there is no CPU present? I mean, I will have one soon but I just needed to check all my fans were hooked up.
If anyone needs any more info I'm happy to help, thanks!
