Hi all, I got my pc about 2 weeks ago, all was good and working until now. Was trying to turn the pc on but nothing happend, no beep, no fan running. The lights on the motherboard are on. Was trying to find any answares but nothing, also was trying to find the power pins on motherboard check if that works, but couldn't find them 😏 I'm not pc expert so you have to forgive me😉 my mother board is ASUS PRIME B450-PLUS was also looking in the manual but that doesn't say either. Thanks in advance

Is this a PCSpecialist machine? Can you post your full specs from the order page?

I've only read now that it should be at least 750W... So it may be it, but wondering why it didn't said that when I was choosing components for pc🤔 was all good when I choose the 450 will have to ring pc specialist and see what they say, the computer is still on warranty thou

If everything is dead then it would almost certainly be a PSU I would think. However, the PSU recommended for your GPU seems to be 500W as far as I can tell - perhaps I have the wrong reference though. That would be for an 'average' system with an average i7 CPU - your CPU is one of the lowest power draw CPU's these days - so while there's no doubt you really should have a better PSU - at 76W for the CPU plus 160W for the GPU it still gives over 200W to spare for everything else. I doubt your PSU has been stressed to breaking point - I wonder if something esle isn't going on also?

Which lights you are referring to as lit on your motherboard? I don't think the B450 has any Q-LED indicators....... Could you clarify what you mean?

I've ring the pc specialist, when I said about PSU he replied that shouldn't be the case, if that would be PSU I would notice a big power drop in the system... anyways they said they will take it back on Tuesday 😏 that's the only lights that are on

Ah OK - that's the Audio track LED lighting and would be powered even when the system itself is off.

Only other thing I can think of to try is to cycle the PSU power switch on the PSU unit itself - as that can reset some internal trips if any occured.

It does sound like a dead PSU I would feel. If it does go back to RMA on Tuesday I would consider taking the opportunity to upgrade your PSU so you can rule that out in future - the RMx series are highly recommended here and a 750 or 850 W PSU will give you all the future proofing you could want really.

Anyway, good luck!

Thanks, I've checked the CPU cable and the button, all sitting correctly.
Was thinking of the PSU upgrade as well so now will have a chance to do that. On the official NVIDIA page says it should be at least 500W, too bad I've only read about it now... Well computers not my strong side but learning every day I guess...

No worries. Go with the TXm - RMx 750 or 850W and you'll be ok :)
