Dead PC

[big.rich1976]

Hi All,

I'm hoping someone can offer some advice. My PC suddenly died while using it. Had a look inside but couldnt see anything untoward so started to troubleshoot. Disconnected all major bits just leaving the motherboard, cpu and ram connected and attempted to power up - no dice

I only had a 300w PSU i could use to test. plugged it in with no GPU connected and it did spin up but obviously no display so i've come to the conclusion its the PSU.

It's a corsair GS700 (700w) PSU. any tricks i can undertake to kick this PSU back into life?

Many thanks in advance.
Richard

Cheers all. It's definately the PSU. I bought this PC whole from facebay about two years ago. The PSU is about 4 years old. Better get shopping. Thanks again for the assistance.

I think i need some help. So many PSU's. Just not up on whats good and reliable. Budget of 100 quid and quite fancy modular. What do you guys use?
