Hey all,
A few days ago my system shut off sometime during the day. Been running the same setup for about 3-4 months now, with no new changes since then.
I’ve already unplugged everything one by one. And everything “functions” fine until the CPU 12v is plugged in. Then the system immediately shuts off. I was hoping this was a PSU issue so just replaced it. Unfortunately it was not the PSU as it’s the same issue.
The system will remain powered if the CPU 12v is not plugged in.
Now I’m hoping it’s just another issue I can resolve without replacing the mobo. I’ve looked around and there have been people with the same issue which they resolved by replacing the PSU so that didn’t help.
Anyone have any ideas on what to try next before trying a completely new Mobo?
System Specs:
Mobo - Gigabyte GA-970A-D3P Rev 1.0
GPU - MSI Radeon RX 570
CPU - AMD FX-8300 Vishera 8 Core 3.3ghz
PSU - (old) Corsair GS700 700w (new) Thermaltake Smart Series 700w
RAM - Gskill Ripjaws X series 8GB x3 (slots 1,2 and 3) and 1 HyperX Fury 8GB (slot 4)
HDD - 1TB Seagate
SSD - 500GB WD
Again, everything stays powered until the CPU 12v is plugged into the Mobo. Already replaced the PSU. If it’s plugged in, the computer turns on for about 2 seconds and immediately shuts off.
Any help would be appreciated.
thanks!!
