Hello.
Im a first time builder and i switched my PC case to a primera pm01 and i installed a new power supply with it (RMx 850). I've done enough research to know what goes where for all of the components bar stuff like case lights.
I connected the 2-Pin LED hub molex to a 6-pin to molex cable . When i pressed the power on button, the LEDs turned on very briefly and then turned off. The fans spun for about 4 seconds and then the system switched itself off. Then it switched itself on and booted to a setup screen where it told me to 'press entersetup to recover bios. I pressed F1 and it went into bios. I switched it off and removed the LED connection and tried again. It booted into windows just fine
I ran Userbenchmark to see if everything was performing the same before and it was fine. I know UBM isnt good but i have a good idea of how my pc performs / what scores it should get. So everything seems fine now.
My question is: WTF happened?
Did i just burn out my LEDs?
Did my motherboard just 'react'/ dectect a new PSU? Because i didnt use any of the same cables?
CMOS battery i think is fine because it remembers the time, stock settings and my overclocking profiles. Could anyone confirm ?
I'm anxious that I've damaged something.
