Hi all,
I assembled a PC few days back. The CPU temperature as displayed on the Motherboard was 50 to 60 under normal load and around 84 under gaming. On the third day, I was editing a video and the system shut down all of the sudden without any warning.
I turned the system on later and it turned on. Few minutes after bootup, it shut down again. Third time when I switched on the system, I got CPU Code 00. Some chassis fans were working. Some not. The 3 intake fans mounted in the front were not working. But exhaust fan was working. I switched the chassis fan connectors on the mobo for the intake fans but no use.
Things I tried:
Mobo: Asus X570 Crosshair VIII Formula
Cooler: Corsair Hydro H115i RGB Pro
Can I confirm that it is a dead mobo and not dead CPU?

Things I tried:
- Flashed BIOS from USB and cleared CMOS. After this, when i pressed the power button, the Fans and the RGB light turned on for a fraction of a second and went off immediately. I pressed power button 3 or 4 times when finally the system powered up. This time, motherboard gave me 'Code 01'. I turned off the system and turned it On again. Code changed back to 00 again.
- Removed all RAM sticks and SATA connection. Got the same code 00.
- Removed GPU and turned on. Got code 00
- Disconnected the 8+4 pin CPU power connector. No change in the code.
- Also reseated the CPU and checked all connections.
