I began constructing a computer system utilizing primarily recycled components, focusing on the central processing unit and power supply. After assembling everything, I attempted to initiate it for the first time; the display illuminated, and a message regarding a CPU fan error appeared briefly before darkness returned. Subsequent attempts to power on the system resulted in only a blue light emanating from the motherboard when activating the PSU switch, followed by an instantaneous power-off upon pressing the power button. Considering this behavior, I suspected a faulty power supply, despite having recently purchased it several weeks prior. The system’s specifications include: an NZXT h700i case with four fans and two RGB strips, an Intel Core i5-8600k processor, a Corsair 105i liquid cooler, 8GB of RAM at 2400MHz, a GeForce GTX 960 graphics card, an Asus Z370-Plus TUF Gaming motherboard, a 128GB M.2 drive, and a 250GB SSD, along with a Corsair Cx650m power supply.

Indeed, it is improved because they can more readily identify the cause of the issue. Therefore, the malfunction stemmed from the power supply unit.

Could your processor be running too hot? What is the method of attachment for the pump and fans?

Could a processor be overheating? It rapidly activates and deactivates, behaving like a quick snap.

Attempt a system test without an enclosure, utilizing only the central processing unit and its cooler, with both 24-pin and 8-pin power cables connected. Also, execute a CMOS reset procedure.

Hello, could you share a photograph of the computer motherboard? I’m unfamiliar with how to upload images—it's an Asus Z370-plus TUF Gaming motherboard.
