Big problem with system

[Lee Charles]

hello all.

A few hours ago I was watching YouTube and my system shutdown and a loud noise came through my speakers It was a weird sound and noticed my ram sticks RGB turned off so I tried turning the system back on and the fans would spin but wouldn't boot up I have tried taking the ram out and using a just a single stick at a time in each dim slot but did nothing. I have also tried a different PSU and still nothing and took out the gpu and tried using the igpu but no joy.

Take out the cpu and look for damage and look for discoloured pads and if there is any damage to the motherboard cpu socket as these cpus have known issues of burning up on certain motherboards. A well known issue if you google it.

I’ve had a look and can’t see any damage on the cpu and socket. Thanks for the reply

Yeah It looks like my CPU have died. I will be calling ocuk this morning to sort out RMA hopefully they will ask me to send back the mobo and ram as well just In case It's something else

OCUK have arranged collection to test what’s at fault

Let us know how you get on

Will do. They said it will take up to 5 working days and whatever is at fault they will replace so hopefully I’ll get my system back up and running by the end of next week
