Lets say that pc broke and you don't know whats wrong.

Do you need to replace every component by one and reboot computer till its all good or is it easier way to find the problem.

Depends on its reaction to things. What does it do when you turn it on? Can you go into the BIOS, at least? Windows? What did it do before breaking, what were you doing before it broke?

What I do is I first check the PSU (power supply unit) if that is not the problem, I move to the hardware. Such as ram, cpu, GPU, motherboard itself could be the problem. 

 

Then from there I work and fix the problem

Do you replace PSU by another one and check is that is a problem (the same is with all the hardvare) or do you do something else?

I thought so, but it's still what I would do, I answered supposing that you meant what you wrote later ;)

If the PSU is the problem, I'll change it. ( This goes for all hardware) But if the problem still continues I'll still check what the problem is.
