I bought a computer second hand at it was sent by mail, and yes, that was probably a bad idea, no need to comment that 😂 sender did not dismount anything and it was sent as is, in one piece.
It seemed to be OK packing and I cannot see any visible damages. When I plug it in, there is no reactions. No LED on motherboard, gpu or anywhere else. I get the feeling it might be the psu, but would not expect the psu to be the component to go. I am also sceptical that the sender had some bubble wrap inside the computer, for reasons unknown. The build is:
Ryzen 7600
Msi 650 gaming wifi
16gb ram
Rx 7600
550w psu
Phantex g360 case
I have an extra psu, is it safe to connect it for testing, or can I risk it being damaged? Can I, as an example, connect it only to the gpu and see if the led lights up?
Also, for some reason, the room does not have grounded outlets, is it possible that the psu won't start because ground is missing?
Any and all tips greatly appreciated
Best regards,
CJ
