Help, why does my power supply do this?

[Scar0134]

This is the 6th time my pc has done this, 

I've completely rebuild it the first time it happened to troubleshoot it and figured out I just had to reset the cpu 

It hairbrush to me again a few months later so I just reseated the cpu again and it worked, it did it again yesterday and I just kept trying till it turned on and today, nothing works, I've reseated everything and unplugged everything, the only thing connected is 24 pin and cpu power, but it still does this, what do I need to do to keep this from happening again? 

 

Specsb:

Ryzen 3600

asrock tai chi x370

Corsair white 750w

My guess it's the motherboard.

 

First remove the riser.

Second put a cooler on the CPU.

 

Test outside the case.

Test with a different PSU.

Test the PSU in another system.

 

What's the exact model of your Corsair PSU?

Corsair RM750w, 80+ gold 

 

Yeah I think ur right. I removed everything. I tested it with just the one stick of ram, the CPU power and the 24 pin. And the issue persisted 

I tried a different PSU and it still didn't work. 

I would need another cpu to verify the CPU and ram are good and if that checks out then it's the motherboard right? 

I guess it's time to upgrade? 

What is better? 

5800x or 5900x? 

Is an X570 board with it over a B550?

for me, 5800x3d was cheaper so i went with that.

depends on the feature set/cooling, but generally 550 are regarded to be better (cause newer) so i went with that.

 

ps: so far 125w / 85C *max* at *default* settings and i bet i could push it a bit further,  but hell if i do, if anything I'd undervolt the thing as much as possible (but it's not necessary... its a very calm little cpu... compared to my 3600 which was wild lol)
