Woke up this morning and noticed my PC isn’t booting properly,
every time I power on the PSU through its switch, the keyboard lights and Bluetooth dongle function,
but when checking inside the case, the motherboard indicators are off (normally a breathing orange LED).
CPU: Ryzen 5 4600G
Motherboard: Gigabyte B450M-K
Memory: 16GB HyperX @3200MHz
Graphics: Gigabyte RX 580 4GB
PSU: Inplay GS450Pro 450W
Any suggestions on what might be wrong? I think the power supply might have failed unexpectedly after upgrading to an RX 580 from a 750TI, and since it’s a 450W unit, the RX 580 should work fine with the white light indicator.
I’ll also attempt troubleshooting later, possibly checking the motherboard as a backup since I have an A520M available. Thanks.

I think it might also be PSU. Even though 450W seems sufficient, not every PSU is the same—some might not deliver exactly half of their rated capacity. Have you given it a try without using Rx 580?
