I updated the AIO in the build and it functioned well during testing. However, when trying to install my GPU, the RGB lights appeared before the system powered off. I assumed the power supply was faulty, so I replaced it, but the PC still won’t start. Now I suspect a motherboard problem, though I want to verify before purchasing a new one.

Identify the exact RGB values displayed. Determine which connections or modules are active. Confirm that the GPU wasn't installed during the system's operation.

All systems remained active. The sudden illumination followed by immediate shutdown was unexpected.

After installing the GPU, the problems began. Removing it resolved the issue? Have you checked another PCI slot if one exists? Please verify the GPU functions properly on another machine. It seems there might be a short on the motherboard side; if the GPU works fine elsewhere, the motherboard could be the problem. Also, ensure all cables are securely connected—sometimes they can shift out of place and cause poor contact.
