[SOLVED] PC Still dead

Hi,

I recently posted regarding the death of my 3y old pc:

TLDR: PC died unexpectedly with no warning signs, flat out refuses to boot when the GPU is installed and when the GPU is removed, gives and error / warning beep that the RAM isn't installed despite reseating.

After recieving a bit of feedback, I bought myself a new PSU and installed it but it's still no working, exact same issue. I'm now thinking it's the either the motherboard or the GPU that's the issue, leaning towards the motherboard as it still won't boot even with the GPU removed?

Any further advise would be welcome.

Thanks,

your assumptions are probably correct

first, can you set optimzed defaults in the bios?

Nope, I can't get any output (having plugged displays directly into the mobo), the system powers on but doesn't post.

ahh true, i'd try the gpu in another system, if it works, i would get a new mobo

Update, I took out everything, re-checked and reseated RAM, plugged everything else back in except GPU and it posted so I'm dealing with a dead GPU. Not ideal in current climate but at least I know what I'm working with.

Thanks for the replies.
