    Noted. Thanks for the suggestion! However, I tried booting up with a known good PSU but the same problem occured. I posted an update above as to what might be the problem, any input on that?

    [SOLVED] MSI X370 Gaming Pro Carbon Died, No Power

    Judging by how my PC was working perfectly fine and it just wouldn't recognize the power button input to go to sleep, I'm thinking my motherboard has some sort of issue with the header pins? Just a thought. If that is the case, the motherboard wouldn't turn on no matter what I do unless if...

    [SOLVED] MSI X370 Gaming Pro Carbon Died, No Power

    Any solution? Kind of depending on you guys here. I don't have repair shops anywhere near me and if there are, they wouldn't know that AMD even exists. Any input would be much, much appreciated. Anything is better than nothing. Thanks!

    [SOLVED] MSI X370 Gaming Pro Carbon Died, No Power

    Just tried a known good PSU (Corsair VS550) and only plugged the 24 pin connector and the CPU connector. Nothing happened. No fans, no lights, nothing. However I did notice something. While the PSU is completely disconnected with the PSU switch off and I connect the power cord in, it stays...

    [SOLVED] MSI X370 Gaming Pro Carbon Died, No Power

    I can definitely buy a better PSU just wouldn't gamble on one like what if it's the motherboard that's dead? I have a confirmed working Corsair VS550 laying around. Shall I try that with just the motherboard? If it works I can upgrade to something like the Corsair CX750. Is that a better PSU...

    [SOLVED] MSI X370 Gaming Pro Carbon Died, No Power

    Panasonic G85 - 12-60mm vs 14-42mm

    Hey guys. I've a quick question. Where I'm at, I've 2 options available for the G85. One's with the 12-60mm lens priced at USD$1251 where as the other one is with the 14-42mm priced at USD$1015. I do however, require a wide angle lens and the ability to zoom in to get a nice blurred out bokeh...

    Nvidia GTX 960 G1 Gaming or GTX 1060?

    Hey guys. So I have a Gigabyte GTX 960 G1 Gaming 4GB graphics card. Should I sell it and purchase the Nvidia GTX 1060 reference card when it comes out on July 19? The specs are out but the benchmarks aren't. Looking at the specs, will it be a "major" upgrade? Btw, my needs are less than what my...

    R9 390 or GTX 970

    Purchased a 960 G1 Gaming (4GB RAM). I had the 970 G1 Gaming and the 960 G1 Gaming run on my setup. The 960 was close to 970 and costed me $100 less. Happy with my purchase. Maxed out Arkham Knight, 1080p, 60FPS. This is amazing! MA.
