Psu defect or ram defect?

[Ohtysed]

Hi guys, 

 

So I build a new system for the first time after experimenting on my prebuild old 7 years system because I got inspired by ltt, and I now I have a problem.

 

So I build my pc and eventually I was ready to start it up. I got a gigabyte rtx 2070 super, amd ryzen 5 3600x, gigabyte x570 ud and 2x8 3200mhz corsair ram sticks. I used my old psu which is around 7 years old, 600W modulair corsair and the same ssd and hdd. So I started it up.. no post, fans were resetting and  I got beeps on my graphics card and the logo of gigabyte didnt lit up. Which means its a psu problem, but at the time I didnt know what the beeps were so I reseated everything, and I tried again. The same happened but my graphics card didnt beep, only once which shows a stable psu, but it turned itself off after 4 seconds of fans spinning and the same goes for the cpu. I unplugged the parts one by one after resetting the cmos battery, resitting dimms and resitting the cpu again. 

 

I started with the graphics card, same problem. Fans keep resetting with no post. I plugged 1 stick out and still the same problem, I plugg both sticks out and the cpu fans dont reset. I try plugging the graphics card back in and it still works fine as it should without the ram sticks. Everything spins including my graphics card. 

 

Is this psu or ram problem because the graphics card did beep several times in the beginning but now magically stopped and the logo of the gigabyte at the front wont lit with or without ram sticks.. I did have a similair problem with my old system when I tried experimenting on it, but it fixed itself eventually after a day resitting everything... Any advice?

try one stick of ram in one slot

boot

try same stick of ram in another slot

boot

try 2nd stick of ram in the first one slot

boot

try 2nd stick of ram in another slot

 

buy a same stick of ram as your other two sticks or borrow a stick of ram is an option

 

---------------------------

 

psu's normally dont fail, if you have a brand name one, unless something fell into it or water damage

 

------------------------

 

did you make sure you didnt drop anything on the mobo?

maybe use a can of air over the mobo and into all the slots, connections, triple check the connections

 

-----------------------

 

can you even get into bios?

 

-----------------------

 

borrow a gpu

borrow a psu

or buy cheap ones

Regardless of which, I'd swap the PSU. The stuff they use in old prebuilds are garbage.

I did everything u said already, except using a can of air. But theyre all brand new except my psu and my hdd ssd so its kinda weird if they would have dust or anythinf on them. And besides that, I checked the pins and if they had dust.

 

And like I said no post aka no bios.

Lol if they work its fine cause the money spent on the gear was enough
