A few days ago I purchased a second hand budget gaming pc:
Xeon e5 1620 cpu
Lenovo s30 mobo
32gb ddr3
256gb budget samsung ssd
Palit gtx 1060 3gb
Corsair cx750 psu
The pc randomly restarts if I run heaven graphics benchmark for 30-60 minuts.
If I decrease nvidia power slider to 50% heaven runs all night.
Prime95 cpu test runs fine.
So im guessing the reboots are caused by the gtx 1060 or the corsair psu.
So I swapped the psu with a ocz from my main pc (amd 5800x3d + rtx 3060ti)
But the second hand budget pc refuse to start with my ocz psu.
If I press the power button for a second or two the fans will run and the lenovo mobo displays post code 00
No video signal or anything.
I have double checked that 24pin and 4pin cpu connectors are indeed connected correct.
I have build pc computers over 20+ years but have never encountered a motherboard that refuse to boot with a working psu. So this really puzzles me.
Anyone know what could cause such behavior?
