Hello everyone, I’m looking for some advice on a PC issue I encountered. After setting everything up and turning it on right away, it powers off immediately. It shows a beep code but the sound is erratic and cuts off. My first thought was a potential short circuit, though I couldn’t find anything during inspection. Could anyone suggest possible causes or check for damage that might lead to a short? The components are: motherboard ASUS Prime H310M-K R.02, 2x8GB RAM (16GB total), GTX 760 GPU, and an Intel i7 6700K CPU.

Search for "breadboard PC" while avoiding any connections. Often I hear about individuals moving to an incorrect motherboard slot, where it contacts the motherboard PCB and results in a short circuit.

Which power supply unit you switched to and whether you kept the old modular cables intact.

It’s an EVGA 500W W2 unit. I didn’t swap any cables; the only alternative was a different kettle cable than the one included, though I’m not sure if they’re standardized.

Turn off and verify functionality without the case. If issues persist, remove everything and test in a standard enclosure.

This CPU isn't compatible with that motherboard. The 100 and 200 series are suitable for the 6th generation, while the 300 series supports 8th/9th generation chips. https://www.asus.com/us/motherboards-com...pdesk_cpu/ You can find an i5 8500 for a reasonable price, which generally performs better than the 6700k (6 cores, no hyper-threading, offering more overall processing power even with fewer threads).

Great, reading the replies helped before I repeated what I wrote.

The design included features to secure the CPU in place, ensuring it stays properly positioned on the board.

You're welcome. It's a funny error, but at least I'm aware of how certain components can lead to quick power changes.

H310 is considered an 8th or 9th generation model, yet the 6th generation doesn't align well with the design details
