My computer suddenly died while playing Kingdom Come: Deliverance and will not turn back on. The computer and game were both running fine then it just shut down, now when I hit the power button I hear two buzzes that sound like it’s coming from the motherboard and nothing else happens. The weird thing is that the RGB lights on my ram now stay on unless I actually flip the switch on my psu.
Ryzen 5 3600
Xfx rx580 8gb black
Rosewill photon2 750watt
G.Skill Trident Z ddr4 3200 x16gb
Gigabyte X570 UD
Western Digital Black 1tb
Rosewill tyrfing atx mid tower case
5 - 120mm case fans

so far I’ve put a volt meter to my psu cable
Checked the seating of all the hardware
Tested the power switch

Any help would be appreciated.

I did the cmos reset and hit the power button. That was followed by a buzz zapy noise and my gpu shorting out leaving it smelling like burnt electrical wiring. Awesom 😭

I don’t want to sound like an <Mod Edit> here but just because you don’t like a particular brand or model PSU doesn’t mean it’s a ticking time bomb. Yes know there are better models but this is what I could afford. I got it on sale for $75 down from $130
