Need help
Hey! So I'm having an issue with my computer.
I don’t really know where to begin. About two weeks ago, my PC stopped working. The fuse blew in my room. I checked some components and discovered that the PSU failed (it was a real [language redacted]).
I got a new PSU, please be quiet, 850w, connected everything. The PC ran smoothly for three days. I played games for a couple of hours during those days. On the third day, it was just idling when I heard a click and then shut down. I tried turning it back on but nothing changed.
Since my friend has the same CPU, we started swapping parts and figured out that my motherboard was dead. I bought a new one, connected all the components, and it worked perfectly.
The next day, I decided to fully assemble everything. I plugged in all my USB devices, and the PC turned on for a few minutes before another click and shutdown. Now it won’t even power on.
I tried some fixes like removing the CMOS battery, swapping RAM, etc., but nothing helped. Also, when I got the new motherboard, I got a warning about an HDD.
I’m not sure what to do next, any advice would be great.

include the age of the PSU apart from it's make and model.
