My computer faced problems and didn’t spin the fan for a moment. I bought a new motherboard, but it only spun for half a second. After swapping out my power supply, the fan still didn’t start for half a second, and the PSU wasn’t working either. It might be related to how the CPU is seated, though I’ve tried this several times. Specs: CPU i5 7600k RAM Vengeance 2x 8 MOBO GIGABYTE B365M DS3H PSU
It seems you might be facing a serious issue with RAM compatibility. Try starting your system with just one stick or a known working RAM from another machine. I also noticed the B365 board and 7000 series aren't compatible—you'll likely need a B360 instead. It's strange how Intel can have different CPU generations sharing the same socket but completely different chipsets. Side note: that Gamemax power supply sounds confusing; get one from a trusted brand like Corsair, EVGA, Seasonic, or S-FP.
You swapped your power supply unit for this one? I’m curious about the old one you had. Please share what it was too. Don’t skimp on the PSU, but make sure it matches your CPU and motherboard specs—especially the chipset and CPU series. Thanks to Intel for their work!
I just came across this while watching a Louis Rossman video... really impressive. My guess is it's about board and CPU compatibility issues.
