PC specifications: CPU - Ryzen 5 3600X, GPU - nVidia GTX 1050Ti, Motherboard - ASRock B450M Steel Legend, RAM - 2x8GB Corsair 3200MHz + 1x8GB Corsair 3000MHz, CPU cooler - AMD Stock, Storage - 1x 250GB XLRB M.2 NVMe SSD + 1x random 1TB HDD.

I functioned normally the previous day, but this morning my PC refused to start. Lights flickered, and the GPU fan began spinning—then stopped after about 15 to 20 seconds. Initially I noticed the CPU fan wasn’t running, so I disabled it, reinserted the header, and it started again, though it still powered down. I attempted to reset CMOS and waited an hour before trying to boot, but nothing changed. I swapped RAM sticks, replaced a few, borrowed another, but nothing worked. Even after replacing the CPU pins, no issues appeared. I recorded the situation with a video showing the problem. It seems there hasn’t been a power surge or other obvious cause, so I’m unsure where to investigate further.

Certainly! I can attempt to run it on another GPU if you'd like. Just let me know which one.

I've tested it on some older NVIDIA GT GPUs too, same outcome. I believe the issue isn't the GPU itself, even though it wouldn't completely crash the system, maybe I'm mistaken.

It seems like you're referring to a GPU, but you're unsure. It might have come from a set your dad had.

I'm sorry, I didn't catch that. You were referring to PSU, not CPU. Let me know the details you have about the manufacturer, model, power, and age.

It seems you're recalling a Maxpro II with a bronze rating and 1200 Watts, purchased around 1.5 years ago on Amazon. The details were updated on May 13, 2022 by xtrm.
