Haha very well. I thought I'd fix the issue if it's something that can be troubleshooted but it seems like it's time for an upgrade. Thanks for your help :)

a Ah i apologize, I meant VS450.

So while idly using my PC all of a sudden my display turned off and my GPU fans started spinning crazy fast. Since then i’ve tried reseating components, tried different cables but nothing worked. I tried putting in the same cables and there’s output from my on board graphics via both VGA and...

Ah, my bad. Operating System: Windows 10 Pro 64-bit (10.0, Build 19043) (19041.vb_release.191206-1406) BIOS: TCIBX10H.86A.0048.2011.1206.1342 (type: UEFI) Motherboard: Intel DH55TC Storage: 256 GB SSD + 1 TB HDD Processor: Intel(R) Core(TM) i5 CPU...

No sound at all. But all the fans spin, even the ethernet port has power.

Intel i5 650 @3.20 GHz Intel DH55TC Board 2 GB RAM modules x2 Corsair VS450(W) PSU Nvidia GTX 550 Ti (removed at the moment) HDDs are also not connected. I'd like to try any other solutions before straight up going for replacing the board. If not, can you recommend a board which is similar...

I just bought a new coin battery and that didn't fix it either. tried with and without my video card. Is there anything else I can try before getting a new motherboard/getting the current one replaced?

So I turned off my computer normally one night like I always do and wake up the next morning to absolutely no post. I've tried the following: Reset CMOS memory via replacing battery and shorting it with the jumper Removed RAM and swapping modules/trying it out in different slots Breadbooting...

The PSU's a Corsair 450W so I wouldn't say it's some crappy model but if it's causing problems I guess it ain't any lesser than that. You're right, this is why I ended up buying a new PSU(current one) just over a year ago when the previous one went bad. For the USB I uninstalled and...

I ask about the USB because lately I've seen that a few USB ports haven't been working properly; my devices are just not detected even when I directly connect them without a USB hub. I checked for a slight shock from all the USB ports and I got nothing so I guess that might not be it. I guess...

I'll definitely look into the PSU. The issue never occurred before I put in the GPU, except when a while ago my PC crashed in a very similar way on plugging in the Ethernet cable. Could a short be possible for one of my USB ports? Yesterday on running some tests there was a crash while at 70C...

Speifically Overwatch. I played GTA 5 for like an hour or so and nothing, but playing Overwatch for say half an hour at most and my PC crashes with absolutely no blue screen and reboots by itself. I've checked Event Viewer for possible reasons of crash and found nothing to point to it. I've...

No not at all. And yeah I'll do that, thanks. Kept the PC on for a few hours and it didn't crash this time, although I did get frame drops on occasion. I guess it's safe to say it was my PSU in the end; 450W isn't much at all. I'll report if I get any problems again. Once again thank you.
