Alright I'll look into it thank you!

Yeah I see what your saying. Right now a mb that looks appealing to me is the razer version of the taichi board I have it's on new egg for $235. I wanted to spend at most $200 so I'll definitely look at the used market thank you.

Essentially what I want is a new motherboard that doesn't feel like I'm downgrading my motherboard but it costs less than my taichi mb. I spent around $270 for that mb and It was a good board but I don't want to spend that much again for an older generation cpu. I bought my mb 3 years ago and I'm pretty sure it's out of warranty by now. The most important thing for my new mb is that it has 3 m.2 slots since I have 3 ssds.

I only have 70% isopropyl alcohol on hand and the thermal paste I'm using is from nuctua. I saw youtube videos of people putting in alcohol on the socket and using a tooth brush to clean. I tried doing the same thing but I just but in a little bit of alcohol to clean.

Okay, I'll try that thank you!

I think the issue might be the CPU or the AIO water cooler because the head pump RGB is not lighting up. The issue could also be the PSU. I don't really know how to trouble shoot my PC in this condition. What do you think I should be doing right now? PC Specs: [PCPartPicker Part List](https://pcpartpicker.com/list/hfB3Wt) I looked at each of the dr.debug codes and I couldn't find any reference to them what do they mean?

I dont think there are sensors to check, I tried looking for them.

When I check event viewer it says my pc crashed because of Kernel power 41 which is a PSU related error. I have gotten an RMA twice from corsair and got new psus but this issue would always happen. I even swapped out different pc parts including motherboard to see if I have other deflective components, but no even when i use my evga psu nothing happens at all when I use my corsair psu, my game restarts but in a very specific place in the game and not all games, but sometimes it just restarts randomly. So I have tried everything software and hardware related I dont know how to fix my problem I don't know what to do anymore. Could it be possible that the electricity in my house isn't reaching the psu properly? I also cant use my EVGA psu because its 500 wats and I need a 750 watt psu for my 3070. For example Im trying to play Rouge Company and whenever i go and play the tutorial mission and start hitting the dummy my pc would just restart in the place all the time. For gta it only restert once with the new rma psu, but the old psu it would restart my pc more often.

What if I replaced the gpu with a old 5600xt?

Just to make things clear I know and understand 100% that no one should do this, but im just asking is okay for just a temporary solution. I originally had issues with my PC it won't boot, but it worked fine before and I had a cor750-watt watt psu. Did a lot of troubleshooting and found out my PC isn't working well because of the power supply? I replaced it with a 500 EVGA evga bq psu just to see if my PC will boot not to play games or anything, and my PC booted. So can I just keep my PC like this according to PC part pickers im using about 419 watts (including other PC parts SSD ssd and motherboard, )? I just need it like this until I get my rma psu and that takes about a week. Right now im not using my PC at all it's shut off but can I use it like this?

Yeah, I have an old PC I can swap out parts and troubleshoot there buts going to be a pain in the ass. Anyway thanks for the help.

So I followed the MB guide on how to reset the CMOS followed that, but I still don't see the code

In the io place for the MB, there is a CMOS button I pressed it but nothing happened, do you think I have to take out the physical CMOS chip and put it back in the MB?

I don't see it, is my motherboard dead or something?

I don't see it I only see the rgb lights on the board
