The computer won't turn on at all.
Hello everyone, I'm facing a problem where my PC suddenly powers off during office work. It stops completely, no fan noise, and nothing else. I've tried disconnecting the PSU from the GPU and it seems to boot up, but I'm not sure if the issue lies with the GPU, power supply, or motherboard. Since I don't have other components for testing, I need help figuring this out. My PC specs are: built myself, running smoothly for six months until now. CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 7500F 3.7 GHz 6-core OEM/Tray processor. Cooler: ENDORFY Spartan 5 MAX ARGB. Motherboard: MSI B650 GAMING PLUS WIFI ATX AM5. RAM: G.Skill Flare X5 32 GB (2 x 16 GB) DDR5-6000 CL30. Storage: Western Digital Blue SN580 1 TB M.2-2280 PCIe 4.0 X4 NVMe SSD. Drive: Seagate SkyHawk 4 TB 3.5" 5900 RPM. Graphics: XFX Speedster SWFT 319 Core Radeon RX 6800 16 GB. Case: Deepcool CC560 V2 ATX Mid Tower. Power Supply: SeaSonic G12 GC 650 W, 80+ Gold certified. OS: Microsoft Windows 11 Pro Retail - 64-bit download.
It seems the system will start without the GPU connected to the PSU, pointing to a likely problem with either the power supply or the GPU itself. Probably not worth swapping cables separately—testing the PSU first would be a smart move.
