Yesterday night, the machine was running Warthunder PC and stopped abruptly, as if the power cord had been unplugged without any noise. The white LED on the power supply remained active, but when I turned it off and came back after ten minutes, the GPU light appeared again, yet when I tried to start it up, nothing happened.

There were no fan fans spinning, not even the case or CPU fans. Only the RAM RGB lit up (which I had previously turned off) and the GPU white LED stayed on.

My system specs are from 2020:
CPU – Ryzen 5 3600
GPU – Asus RX 570 OC 8GB
Motherboard – Gigabyte B450M (WiFi)
RAM – 2 x 8GB 3000
Power Supply – Ant E Sport vs600L (previously had a Corsair 500 before it failed during a thunderstorm)

I cleaned it up after the incident, hoping something would work, but it didn’t. No burnt smell or any obvious damage to the case or CPU. At least the RAM RGB turned on briefly after I powered it back on, whereas before it only activated when I pressed the boot button.

I’m wondering if the PSU is bad or if the CPU is the issue. Please advise.

Welcome to the forums, newcomer!
My specs 2020built
Processor: P - R5 3600
Graphics: rx570 asus oc 8gb
Motherboard: gigabyte b450m (wifi one)
RAM: 2x8 3000
Power Supply: ant e sport vs600L (previously had a corsair 500, which failed during a storm)
When sharing troubleshooting threads, it's important to provide your complete system details. Please list the specifications clearly as follows:
CPU:
CPU cooler:
Motherboard:
RAM:
SSD/HDD:
GPU:
PSU:
Chassis:
OS:
Monitor:
Include the age of the PSU, along with its make and model. Also, note the BIOS version for your motherboard at this time.
PSU - ant e sport vs600L
Your current PSU is quite poor. You should consider getting a more reliable 650W unit instead, and check if the problem continues.

The next action should be to verify the PSU or switch to a recognized good and compatible one. Those lights are irrelevant; the PSU comes in various sections and voltage levels, and any variation could lead to issues.
