Cpu not turning on. New Psu

[flesk12]

one day my cpu just will not turn on. pressed the power button and nothing, no beep no light, happens. Checked psu and seems dead. bought a new one, tested and working, and cpu is still doing nothing. board is about 5 years old and used heavily. should i get a new board now? appreciate any help

Yes, if you exchanged the PSU already, buying a new MoBo is sensible. It may have died together with your old PSU.
What is your CPU?

cpu is intel i7. not sure which gen.

Can you check your GPU somewhere, just to make sure, it is not something about that?

great removed the gpu and i am able to open pc without any problems. Now need to change gpu. As mentioned its an old system and not a lot of money to change parts. Any recomendation for a gpu. mobo is gigabyte ga-h61m-ds2.

Here's the rest of the spec:
4GB RAM
Intel Core i7-3770 CPU @ 3.40 GHz

Prev GPU was at 2 gb

Do you get a picture when connecting via VGA once you removed the GPU?

onj board vgu is working. using it as of now.

The core i7 3770 is still a good CPU for FullHD Gaming, so if the MoBo is working as well, there is no need now for upgrading.
I'd concentrate your financial ressources on a new GPU.
I assume you like to play games on your PC. What is the native resolution of your Monitor, and what is your budget?
