I built my PC in 2018. I’ve been using it without any problems since. I do my best to take care of my PC. I use compressed air to clean off the dust. I always shut off my PC every night.
small back history of my PC
There was a CMOS issue that I resolved by installing a new one that was more than a year ago, and sometimes there are some power outages, so I kept my PC in sleep mode for a couple of hours through my backup UPS, but then I stopped doing that. Recently my UPS battery is dead, so when the power goes off, so does my PC, but there are no issues when I restart my PC.
This morning, when I tried to turn it on, nothing would respond. The LED lights on my motherboard are lit up (indicating that it is receiving power), but the fans won’t turn on, the screen won’t respond, and the LED lights on the RAM sticks won’t glow…. Nothing responds to the power button on my case.
I did check for loose cables and the case power button cable; there were no issues there, but then while I was checking, which took around 5-10 mins with my PSU on, I pressed the power button again just for the sake of it, and my PC started. Then I shut down the computer after it booted to Windows, and I switched my PSU for 2 mins, turned it back on, the mobo LED lights on, and then pressed my power button again. No start... so I just sat there looking at my computer for another 2-5 mins with the PSU switch on, and it happened again. I pressed the power button, and my PC started.
I feel like my PSU is the culprit here. It takes time for it to charge??? or power up to its optimum level...
so rational dission is to change the psu???
like to hear your suggestions
my spec
corsair RM1000x
