UPDATE: Thanks for the advice, I’ll be using it in the future. But around the time I made this post said buddy ran off to get tech support in person without telling me.
Currently trying to help a buddy out over Discord.
He’s on a milliary base and just got his PC shipped from home. But someone had taken his PSU while he was away, So he’s bought a new one but can’t get his PC to boot. Fans don’t spin up or anything.
Been trying to figure out what motherboard he has so we can find a manual. but all we know so far is it’s an ROG with an AMD socket.
Any help would be great thanks.
Came here to say this. Do not reuse cables from other modular power supplies.
During cv19 I ran a computer retailer warehouse. We were a SI but also sold components, pretty standard storefront for that industry.
One of our customers did just this, purchased a new PSU to pair with their prized Aorus Master 3080. Didn’t swap a single connector, just plugged it all in and hit power. No POST, just nothing…
Most components failed tests on our testbench, was a big rip moment for that customer. We waived the diagnosis fees and quoted them on a new system subbing’ in components from their cooked build.
