Recently there was a thunderstorm in my area. The day before I was on my computer and it was working. I left it on and the power went out a little while after the storm started. I though it would be no big deal because I've never had any issues with surges in my house and it's hooked up to a good quality surge protector. There was a pretty bad looking surge while the power was out, the lighted flicked on very brightly and very quickly. A few day after the storm I try to turn on my PC and nothing happens.
Nothing happened to anything else in my house, most of which is just hooked up to those ancient beige power strips or nothing at all. I tried to narrow down the problem by using the power supply from my sister's computer (which works fine and it's hooked up to one of the beige strips) and the problem still occured. The orange SB_PWR light is lit on the motherboard and even the small white light on my Asus RX580 Strix. I tried disconnecting as much as possible from the mobo and then booting, all that was connected was the CPU, RAM, and PSU. Tried powering up using the short with a screw driver method and it didn't work. I cleared CMOS, nothing.
I'm just not sure if there's a simple fix and if not, do I need to replace the Mobo or CPUT. If someone could help that'd be great because power surges are not covered by warranty so I hope there's a cheaper solution than buying a new mobo/cpu.
SPECS:
MOBO: Asus B350-F
CPU: Ryzen 3 1200
GPU: Asus RX 580 Strix
PSU: EVGA Supernova 750 B1
RAM: 1 x HyperX Fury DDR4 8GB
