[SOLVED] My computer sometimes turns on, sometimes does not. (It's not about the PSU, I sent it to the service.)

Hello, as you can understand from the title, my computer sometimes turns on and sometimes does not. First of all, like everyone else, I thought the problem was related to the PSU and went directly to the service. But they said the PSU has no problem. Later, I tried changing the places of the RAMs or installing them one by one, but the problem was still not resolved. I tried to run it by removing the video card but still nothing changed. I think the problem is with the motherboard, but I want to ask you before sending it for service. Because my computer sometimes works and I use it for 1 day without any problems. Even when my computer is turned on and off, the RAM and motherboard lights are also on, but the video card or any fan is not spinning. What do you think could be the problem? I think of a short circuit, but my wiring is fine. I would be glad if you help.

62 GB? How's that possible. Also, 4x16=64. But enough of nitpicking. 😆

Unless you try to run your system with 2nd, known to work PSU, you can not rule out PSU issue. Also, just because you sent your PSU into service doesn't mean they did anything with it. Or they couldn't find the issue with PSU since the test system to which they plugged your PSU in, didn't put as high/low load on the PSU as your system does.

But if you want to have another culprit, other than PSU, then yes, next in line would be MoBo. Though, i personally, would try with 2nd, known to work PSU 1st, to rule out...

And if that doesn't change anything (PC still produces the same issue as with original PSU), then i'd be comfortable moving forwards and deal with MoBo.
