A Problem To Be Solved?

Hey,

Basically my GPU fan is not spinning up! I've tried a different mobo and a different GPU (same result, no fan) so it cant really be any of those two. Can a burnt CPU make the GPU not fire up. The CPU fan starts up but that might not mean the CPU is working surely??

I've changed the PSU aswell as i originally thought this was the culprit, ive tried different memory slots with the ram. Whats the order for a start up? is it cpu, ram, gpu??

What would that tell me?

Can't be that the OP tried another mobo and gpu. I noticed that he had a Hiper psu so something along those lines were my thoughts too.
TBH it really can't be anything else but the cpu now.

Yeah got a new PSU, Corsair 650W! Also have a new motherboard aswell. It must be the CPU....blast!

Yeah i've put an offer for a Q6600 down in MM. Just waiting to hear back. No i don't think my 4300 did.

My other mobo is the Gigabyte Ep43 - UDSL. Reckon the Q6600 will push further on that board??

Altho my Asus was absolutley spot on for a long time, might just stick with that.
