Hello all!

 

So after coming home today I decided to sit down and play some games, until my pc didn't post at all. I look down and see that only some of the led's on my fan are on and some without led's were not spinning at all. So I decided to turn it on and off again to see if that fixed the issue. Then I realised more fan had turned off and my gpu fans were spinning at full speed and not slowing down. So I tried a couple more times with no prevail. I then removed the GPU to see if that was the issue, and still no fix. Though after removing the power supply I saw that there is some white stuff all around parts of the power supply that I never remember being there when I built it. Pics, sorry for bad quality. If anyone has any troubleshooting ideas or may know what the issue is, all help is appreciated.

 

Here is my part list, I only have one gtx 980 now.

 

Thanks in advance

Swap the power supply with a known good one.

Reset BIOS.

Good Luck.

NOTE: I no longer frequent this site. If you really need help, PM/DM me and my e.mail will alert me.

Went to do that today with a mates one, but his power supply has a 28pin connector for the motherboard so I couldn't try it... I'll be getting another one to try tomorrow, thanks for the advice though.

It could be overheating.

Have you checked CPU and GPU temps under load?

They should both be under 80 degrees Celcius.

 

Download something like hwinfo64 or hwmonitor, download AIDA64, fire both up, and run a stress test in AIDA64 while watching your temps at first in the first 5 minutes or so. Since this is only to test for temps, after about a half hour shut it down and report back to us what your max CPU temps are.

 

Also, download something like 3dmark firestrike or superposition benchmark and run that along with hwinfo64 or whatever and report back to us what your max temps were for the GPU after the benchmark.
