Wrong. It will turn on without a CPU. It just won't POST. This myth needs to stop.

When I forget to plug in CPU power my computer flashes on, then off. Nothing happens unless the CPU is in and working. BIOS doesn't show up, nothing responds, USB doesn't get power, ect. I'd say it doesn't turn on.

I used to be quite active here.

i'll go ahead and test that tomorrow actually, i guess booting without a cpu gives the same result as booting without a cpu power connector.

 

right?

When I start a computer without a CPU, it either outright refuses to turn on, or it turns on for a couple of seconds...

But the user is suggesting the system doesn't power on at all, when it will.

Depends on motherboard, some power up with no POST, some just turn on for a quick second then turn off.

Well, no. I didn't say the PC would be functional. I just said it would turn on. Your analogy doesn't quite work.

I'd say wait for CPU and RAM before making any assertions.

COMPUTER: Mobile Battlestation  |  CPU: INTEL I7-8700k |  Motherboard: Asus z370-i Strix Gaming  | GPU: EVGA GTX 1080 FTW ACX 3.0 | Cooler: Scythe Big Shuriken 2 Rev. b |  PSU: Corsair SF600 | HDD: Samsung 860 evo 1tb

With me eventually losing since people are more likely to test these things than me as I don't have time.

What are you trying to do? Just test everything?

This is the next level of impatient. Just WAIT for your parts to finish arriving... Why would you put it together partially and then hope it works?
