Hi guys,

My PC just crashed mid use with no warning and when turning it on now it jumps straight to the screen it crashed on (flickering), no bios or anything coming up.

When checking inside everything appears fine, temp is good and nothing obviously blown.

I'm a massive noob when it comes to hardware faults so at this stage I have no clue as to what the cause is.

I was running Skyrim with a few mods at the time, nothing that should be straining any of the components at all.

MB: z270-p
CPU: i7 7700k
RAM: 16gb (2 x 8gb ddr4)
Video: gtx 1070 8gb
PSU: cx600

OS Windows 10 starting from an SSD, all other programs stored on a seperate HDD, the PC is 10 months old.

Any ideas on what the cause could be?

Thanks in advance!
 
It goes straight to the screen it crashed on? Is it not turning off then? That makes no sense.

Could take out all the RAM, see if it errors on boot (if it has a speaker)
Otherwise, test RAM individually one by one in all the slots.

Assuming the mobo doesn't have on board graphics?
