    My previous PC had an off-and-on issue with not turning on (or rather, not booting) shortly before I built myself an all new PC. Turns out, it was that my GPU evidently didn't like to stay properly seated. After a little over 6 years of use, it just suddenly stopped staying put and kept shimmying out. It was the weirdest thing because I'm still using that GPU in my new PC (planning to upgrade if GPU prices drop due to the crypto crashes) and it never gives me that issue with this PC, so my guess is that it was the port on the old mobo.

    Hmm Brian had a similar situation with my old Sandy Bridge build just recently and I went through most of what you did except I did not use a new PSU. When I tried the paperclip trick with the PSU cable I got a small puff of smoke from near the end of the GPU and thought the motherboard was shot even though it still had some LEDs showing power. To cut a long story short I found the problem when I touched the GPU and found it wiggled around in it's slot because the original plastic clips that held the GPU in situ had got brittle and had broken off leaving the GPU loose in its slot so I screwed it into the case as I should have done when I built the machine. I gave the RAM sticks a reseating and voila' the machine fired up. So it goes to show one should check cable and card fittings before you do anything else and save yourself a lot of money. So all in all a simple fix for what I thought was a broken motherboard.😄

    I ran into an issue with my current PC while building it. I have a Fractal Design Define Mini C and mounted a SATA SSD in the only place where I could which was on the right side of the case, just under the side panel. This was fine till I upgraded my components. The PC kept shorting when I turned it on and I tore it apart trying to find the cause. What had happened was that sliding the case side panel on had damaged the power connection on the SSD and it was dead as a dodo! I quickly ordered an M.2 as a replacement, and, fearing I'd knackered the GPU, I ordered one of them as well. The system is fine ever since and my niece is using the old GPU in her system as it turned out to be fine. It's a GTX 980ti but suits her needs.

Suddenly I come frm work one day and it won’t turn on, even tho I see that everything connected to the pc is on but the pc turn on button doesn’t turn on the rig itself. I then disconnect and connect the 24pin and SATA cable frm the psu, then I disconnect the gpu and it turned on with the power button, then I connected everything back thinking I fixed the problem somehow cause I was surprise when it turned on. Once I connected the gpu everything in the rig turned on for like about 1 to too 2 seconds(The gpu lights did turn on). Please LMK any tips or any idea on what the issue could possibly be as I have no idea. The only thing I did before the gpu and psu cable idea I removed the ram and put one in put no luck, then I blew off anything on the ram and put all 4 rams sticks but again to not luck.

    Ive visually inspected everything and dont see a short? Pretty sure thats the cause though because i read somewhere the PC wont start if it detects a short (also the BIOS has a setting to preventing powering USBs during the start process to prevent this exact issue) and am confident this is the issue.

    Wow,talk about coincidence. Brought a friends PC home today to fix. When I was at his house PC fired up with no post,no video but fans were going wide open and then cycling. Been in the game for a bit and I told him I suspected the PS. There are a lot of people that don't realize that a PS can work a little bit but still be bad. Anyway,had a couple parts PC's that had a compatible PS. ;)
