So last night I was playing a game when all of a sudden my PC shut off. After that I am no longer able to turn on my PC, no fans or lights or anything. What I notice though is when I press the power button (and this only happens if I completely turn off all power from the switch in the back) the fan and cpu lights blink for a split second or less, with the psu fan slightly twitching as if it was trying to turn on but just couldn't. I even tried using 1 ram stick, unplugged all my USBs and even hdds, and still it just does that blink.
What I was able to do though is use my PSU tester I bought a while back and when I plug in the 24 pin plug and CPU plug, the PSU actually turns on and the readings look normal. Does this still look like a PSU problem though? Other sites mention it could be the MB but those don't usually fail that much, plus I was already using the PC when it just instantly lost power (no surge or anything).
I am going to buy a new PSU later and see if it works since it usually is a PSU problem, but I just wanted to ask this question to see what you guys think.
