I recently purchased components for my PC, and everything seems connected properly, but the power supply isn’t turning on or starting. It’s not working at all. We’re considering the issue could be with the power supply itself, the connector to the motherboard, or maybe the motherboard is faulty.

Inspect every MB/PSU link, and make sure the PSU connector is firmly secured. That was likely the problem before.

We looked up the motherboard guide online and found the specs required an 8-pin CPU, a 24-pin connector, and a power supply with just one 8-pin port. I’m planning to purchase a new PSU to verify it matches the needs.
