    Question Cant boot new motherboard, tested new parts, but it won't start.. Please advice

    It's possible your cpu is frying your motherboard. I would maybe replace the motherboard one more time and not place the old cpu in it at all.

    Question Will shorting the pwr switch with only the psu turn on lights

    Question Will shorting the pwr switch with only the psu turn on lights

    I'm just worried about the possibility of the cpu frying my motherboard because I've received 3 DOA motherboards as of late. I think the power supply is the issue and bought a new one to confirm.

    Question Will shorting the pwr switch with only the psu turn on lights

    I want to test my motherboard to check for signs of life before I place my cpu in it. Am I able to just connect the psu to the motherboard, a GIGABYTE B450M DS3H, and have lights turn on?

    [SOLVED] Can a faulty cpu fry a motherboard?

    I've possibly had 3 boards arrive DOA, however that is unlikely. Ive narrowed it down to my power supply or cpu frying the motherboard. I think it is more likely that the psu is the issue but how likely is it the cpu causing the issues?

    [SOLVED] New build won't turn on

    So after testing my last motherboard I came to the conclusion that it was DOA. I just received a new one today and I just test only the motherboard, cpu, cpu fan, and the power supply. I plugged the 24 pin connector and cpu connector snug. After placing the screwdriver on the pwr switch nothing...

    [SOLVED] New build won't turn on

    No life at all. I removed everything besides the cpu, cpu fan, cpu connector, and the 24 pin connector. Does this mean my motherboard is most likely DOA?

    Should I removed the usb2.0, 3.0, F-Audio, and sata cables as well? Also does it matter if it is in the case?

    Do i need to turn on high performance mode to overclock on CCC

    On CCC it says "clock settings are only applied when gpu is running on high performance mode." Do I need to put my computer on high performance mode or will it automatically go on when gaming?
