Hi everyone,
Yesterday I tried to upgrade my motherboard with a newer processor, but the system just shut down after I tried to boot Windows 10 from an USB drive. After consulting a friend, he advised me to just clean the cooler and add a new layer of thermal paste onto the CPU. After doing that everything seemed fine, but When Windows booted up after the installation and I started setting everything up it turned off again.
Now I'm being told that the PSU is to blame, but I don't see how that can be possible since everything booted up and worked for a while in the first place.
Could it be that the stock cooler just isn't powerful enough to cool the new CPU down. The old one was 65w and the new one is 89w.
