Hi.
My PC has been giving me absolutely no issues until now.
I was playing my usual games and when I was off to bed I shutdown my PC, nothing out of the ordinary, but when I came to switch it on the next day, I pressed the power button and nothing happened.
The light on my motherboard is on when plugged in, so as far as I know my PSU is still drawing power, but I have read that doesn't necessarily mean that the PSU still works.
I've cheched and double checked all the obvious solutions. The PSU is a Huntkey LW-6550HG 550W, and my other specs are as follows:
Ryzen 3 2200g (no overclock)
1x 8gb 2666mhz RAM
XFX Rx570
Asus Prime a320m-k motherboard
I bought the PSU second hand in 2013, not sure how long the previous owner had it for, so it is at least 7 years old.
I haven't been able to narrow it down to the PSU being the cause, but I'm assuming it is because of its age. I bought the motherboard, CPU, GPU, and RAM last year so those are still relatively new. Has the PSU finally drawn its last breath or could it be something else?
