About a month ago I plugged 12v into a 5v USB socket on my cpu, I managed to get a new motherboard free of charge from the manufacturer but it still would not boot, The new cpu (Was under warranty) just arrived today but still no boot. Not even a ram buzz? I tested the old cpu/mobo with another psu but should I change psu? all the fans and lights power up and there seems to be no issue. I have tried both my 1060's and the mobos output.
