I have put together a pc, and I plugged it in after receiving my proccesor and cooling system, I was very glad to see it power up, but after running for about 60 seconds, it powered off, and then turned back after 20 seconds. It continued to do this until I powered down the system entirely. Any idea how to fix it? It might be a ram problem, but I figured the sister would be able to sustain power for more then a minute with out connecting ram
