Hello good people.
I am experiencing a very strange situation where my pc started shutting down randomly then never powers on again until I disconnect the power cable from the psu and give it few minutes before it starts again.
After that, it started happening daily and I have to go through the same procedure everyday. The PSU does a clicking sound the nothing happens.
I tried rebuilding the pc, removing absolutely everything except for cpu and ram and the pc doesn't seem to start. So I took the psu and plugged it into an older system and it worked just fine. At first, I thought my motherboard or cpu are dead but the wouldn't let the pc start and work normally after I unplug the power cord and leave it for sometime. Anyways, I grabbed the old system psu( a crappy 250w cheap chinese psu that doesn't even have a pcie power cable) I plugged the 24 pin and a 4pin cpu cables and boom the pc just starts!! I added the graphics card and the rest of the ram and it worked like a charm! But whenever I bring back my old psu to my system it doesn't start I just hear a clicking sound.
My specs:
B450m-A pro max
Ryzen 3 3300x
16gb ram
Cooler Master Mwe 650w Gold V2 Psu
The cooler master psu works fine in the old system with an intel E5700 and my system works with the cheap psu but when i swap back my cooler master the strange behaviour happens again and am really stuck and confused. Any help is appreciated.
Thank you
