Hi,

 

Im not sure if this is a PSU issue but I'm having issues with it not powering on. 

 

I recently started having a strange problem where if I don't use my PC for a while when I go to turn it back on it lights up the boot order lights get to VGA then the PC shuts off, the strange part is it wont fully power on until I physically take the PC to another room and power it on there then it just works even when I take it back to my room... once it has powered back on I have no issues playing games or anything and turning it off and on again until I leave it off for almost a day.

 

I have tried unplugging all unnecessary cables leaving just the main power and CPU power plugged in and have tried removing the GPU, it just wont start until I take the PC to another room... there is probably something more to it then just taking it to another room that I'm just not picking up on, so any help and suggestions would be greatly appreciated. 

 

PC specs:
Mobo: ASUS TUFF GAMING Z490-PLUS
GPU: 1080ti Aorus Xtreme 

RAM: Corsair Vengeance 4x8GB (32GB) @3600Mhz

CPU: Intel i9-10850k

CPU cooler: Noctua NH-D15

PSU: Corsair RM1000x 1000w (less then a year old)

I think the powerplug in your room is broken in some way. If the pc works on a other powerplug it is prob your powerplug cant deliver enough power for the pc this can be due to multiple things. And if the pc powers on with other plug then works on this plug try running a benchmark like 3d mark or something to see if the outlet cant power the system.

Thanks for the reply, I can try changing the power outlet it's plugged into to see if that resolves anything, obviously given then problem I"m having I won't be able to report back any changes for a while.

 

I did run 3D Mark time spy and it ran just fine while using the power outlet I always use.
