Hey all,
I bought a B grade mobo nearly 2 weeks ago and I'm having issues with it.
When I received it it looked like it had been well used (scratches to paint and screw holes and some bent pins on RGB headers) but thought this was to be expected being B grade.
Set everything up and has been working fine for a week or so.
However whilst using yesterday, it just suddenly went off. No Windows blue-screen just went off. Tried to power back on and the mobo would not POST.
Came back to it last night and it came on fine no issues. So I updated the BIOS and cleared CMOS to start there.
Turned on again this morning and again it just went off. Tried to start itself up and went again.
I took my GPU out to see if it was that causing issues, straight away before it even finished booting Windows it went off again.
Tried switching my RAM around and trying one stick, same issue.
I've started the ball rolling with OC for them to help sort it or RMA the board, but just wondering if anyone could suggest anything else to check / test, or if anyone else had seen this before?
Cheers,
Si
