[SOLVED] GPU seems dead but fan still spins ?

[nagazai]

My pc stopped working .

Upon testing it will turn on without the GPU but since its a ryzen 5, cannot fully test it.

The weird part is that with the power supply cable disconnected, the gpu fan turns on, the pc "starts" and asks for to plug the Power supply onto the gpu. But when I do, the mobo doesnt turn on.

The power supply looke ok, is outputting the 12v it should be i dont have a friend with a pc that i can ask to test the gpu for me. What else can I do?

full system spec? include brand and model of the psu

this and are ya sure the psu isn't bad? That's what it seems like to me. Sounds like your pcie connector on the psu has an issue.

I would suggest trying the gpu in another pc or try another psu in your pc

Not weird - - the fan gets it's power from the PCIe slot, not from the power cable.

have you tried giving the pc time to completely boot ? give the machine sufficient time to load the os. in some computers if you did NOT specify the primary display device and interface you will have no video until the os begins to load or has loaded . if good there i would try in a different machine and see what the outcome is . if its good in another unit then i would start looking at your power supply . a multimeter and load tester are your best friend .
