I would ask for the money back you paid for them to find the fault

Cause they have failed you and just told any BS and not what the real problem is

Yeah if they've diagnosed the GPU as faulty just let OcUK know and they can get this swapped for you (you would need to remove the card from system though and send it in)

Don't do this going by Silicon Centre's advice on the cable being the cause of the issue. There might be nothing wrong with the GPU and it'll leave the OP out of pocket if he sends back a perfectly good GPU.

I hope silicon didn't fit that PSU, they probably would put your PC beyond repair if their diagnosis is anything to go by.

It could be a faulty power switch on the case or have you tried a CMOS reset - worth a shot

Try with only one memory module installed and a CMOS reset.

gritts · 26 Nov 2013 at 20:33

Hmm, I would try the CMOS reset header, op might of had the power still connected.

nikki5974 · 26 Nov 2013 at 20:33

Did you fit the new PSU yourself ?

Jokester · 26 Nov 2013 at 20:34

A brief spin up and then power down is typical of RAM sticks not being fully engaged.

sounds like a short to me

gritts · 26 Nov 2013 at 20:35

yes i did and was all labelled up and ive fitted many parts to comps,was doing exactly the same thing when old power supply was in the machine

nikki5974 · 26 Nov 2013 at 20:35

Have you got the 4/8 pin cpu power lead connected up

Just check that all connections are fully pushed in and the Ram is in correct you may of caught a ram stick when you fitted psu up

gritts · 26 Nov 2013 at 20:36

computer was on when it happened,i heard it powering down itself and its been like that since

gritts · 26 Nov 2013 at 20:38

computer was not touched when it happened the first time,was just powered on and left alone & i heard it powering down on its own
