Hey, guys. I have a problem with my motherboard and I think it's finally dead now. (Or it seems so, at least)
I've had it since 2013 from a cheap brazilian brand named PCWARE, and around 2016 it started giving me a few issues:
It happened that I tried to turn on my PC and the MOBO simply didn't give any video output at all, and kept rebooting itself in a infinite loop (It turned on with no video and after 10 seconds it turned off/on again and kept doing that on and on), so for a fix I simply switched my RAMs from a slot to another and the computer simply turned on back again and I moved on with life. (keep in mind this happened first 4 years ago)
The thing is, some months later out of nowhere, the issue always seemed to return, and sometimes I even had to run only with one RAM stick to make the PC turn on again, and then, some days later, I just added the other stick back and BOOM! the thing turned itself on again.
But now, it seems like it is completely ''dead'' or bugged, because I can't seem to turn my PC off, since everytime I try to start it back on again, the motherboard keeps rebooting itself with no video output at all around 20 times till it's FINALLY able to turn my PC on, and I've already tried to do all kind of fixes I did back again, but now nothing seems to fix it.
I know the motherboard is the faulty piece here, and I'll probably have to buy another one, but I just would like to know if you guys know why it's able to turn itself on after 20 retries (like, literally rebooting and rebooting till the bios screen show up) and if there is a fix I can do for it, since I've tried everything I can think of. (I am writing this using this same PC right now, and it works just fine with all the components on 100% usage, it just doesnt work when I turn it off and try to turn it on again)
CPU: i5-3470
