    [SOLVED] New motherboard, same old problem?

    PC resolved. Called my IT friend over and we took the PC apart. Turns out the pins on the CPU were a little bent (and I didn't notice), so the motherboard couldn't even turn on without it. PC has been running fine now after adjusting it and fitting in the AM4 socket!

    [SOLVED] New motherboard, same old problem?

    He used some kind of multimeter to check the current being delivered to the motherboard, connecting both the 8-Pin and 20+4-Pin to it. There were both of these sockets into the multimeter-thingy, so he could check it. Everything was being delivered as it should

    [SOLVED] New motherboard, same old problem?

    Hey, guys. Big story time, but any help is appreciated. So, I have a "big" problem and have been out of my PC for the past two weeks or so. All started a few months back when sometimes when I turned on the PSU on its back, power wouldn't get delivered to the rest of the rig until a few minutes...

    [SOLVED] PC doesn't boot unless I change the GPU power cable?

    Haha yes, I completely agree with you! Hopefully I won't get this 'not booting' problem anymore. I was always like, very rare, but still very annoying. Thanks for the help! Be well!

    [SOLVED] PC doesn't boot unless I change the GPU power cable?

    I'm using the Ryzen Balanced Plan on my stuff. Hibernate was disabled already; Sleep was disabled already; Plugged In was activated. I changed it to Important Wake Timers Only; and I don't have the 'Enable Wake Timers' On Battery. Only the Hybrid Sleep mode, which was activated and I set it to off.

    [SOLVED] PC doesn't boot unless I change the GPU power cable?

    Fastboot was already disabled when I went into BIOS. I guess it's more of a GPU issue. Will only be able to fix it when I purchase a new one in the near future xD

    Will turn off the 'fastboot' option. Thanks! In case this error persists, I will post in here again! I noticed that when I accidentally press my keyboard or mouse, their lights will turn on (and leave at it) even when the PC is off.

    I meant only the gpu power cable. I have to switch them every now and then when this happens

    [SOLVED] PC doesn't boot unless I change the GPU power cable?

    It's because I paused the video in order to do it. I couldn't unplug and plug the GPU power cable with one hand haha, Also, I mistakenly said VGA when it is actually the GPU power cable. It's written VGA in it. My bad! It's what I have to do it sometimes in order to boot/show video. If I don't...

    [SOLVED] PC doesn't boot unless I change the GPU power cable?

    Hello all! I haven't posted this until now, but it is a problem that I have with my PC that started happened a while ago (more than a year I guess. I know it's stupid to be this "late" to troubleshoot). I custom built my PC buying the parts and assembling them in July 2018 and have been using...

    Planning my first gaming PC with a decent budget

    I searched for the best motherboards, SSDs, PSUs etc. and I found great reviews on those that I put on my list. Don't know if there are other parts that perform just as well and are cheaper or equivalent. What do you think of the ones I chose? Also, do I need a DVD/CD thing for the PC or is it...

    Planning my first gaming PC with a decent budget

    Hello everyone. I'm new here and am planning to build a PC when I travel to the US in a few months. I'll have a budget of around 1500USD so I think I may be able to get some goodies that will improve my gaming experience. I made a list with the parts that I think are more than good for most of...
