So my pc has been on about 6 hours and while i was playing B2 it turned off. It wont turn back on so I cleaned it and still wont, however there is a light on my graphics card and it flickers on before turning off, could this be a overheating issue?

 

specs

msi b350 pc mate

ryzen 5 1400

2 4GB Ram sticks

zalman z9 case

arctix psu (500W i think)

any help is appreciated

any beeps?

and postcodes?

 

It could be a bad PSU (powersuplly).

 

have you checked that the ram is properly mounted and tried re-mounting it?

does it stay on? or does it turn back off?

No beeps, could it still be a bad psu if the gpu is lighting up? It sometimes flickers on the  turns back off straight away
