Hello you smart pc people, I’ve had a build for 2 years now and decided I need an upgrade.
I changed out my motherboard due to my USB ports Melting into there sockets
I set everything up such as
Cpu: i5-7400
Gpu: gtx-1060
Psu: I don’t really know it was from my original build that I had bought premade
Ram: 2 Hp 4 gb stick of ddr4
Motherboard: gigabyte H310M A 2.0
My Pc will turn on when the cpu power is disconnected
When it is connected the fans spin and the psu led flashes before turning off
I’ve tried another psu but It is an older one from a dell build back in the windows xp days
Anyways it still did the same thing turning off within a few seconds
I replaced the motherboard with a new one just in case I accidentally broke it, yet it still does the same thing..
At this point it’s either the psu or cpu. And I don’t have the money to buy both so I came here to ask what to do first
I have taken out my cpu and powered it on but it powers back off 4 seconds later than the original 1/2 seconds
