My PC Won’t Turn On—Could It Be the PSU?

Asked By GamerGal01 On

I bought a PC from a friend a few months ago, and its specs are an Intel i5-11400F cooled by a Deepcool AK 400 air cooler, an RTX 3070 Vulcan OC V, an Asrock B560M Pro 4 motherboard, a MSI MAG 320R cabinet, a Samsung 1 TB M.2 SSD, and a Kingston 1 TB SATA SSD. I've also added three extra ARGB fans from Ant Esports, powered by a Deepcool 750W 80+ Gold PSU. Recently, I played Valorant for a couple of hours and shut down my PC. When I attempted to turn it on about 20 minutes later, it wouldn't power up—there are no lights on the motherboard, no fans spinning, and no keyboard or mouse lights. There's no smoke or burnt smell from the PSU, but I believe it might be dead. If possible, I'd appreciate recommendations for a good PSU for my setup under 6-7K INR. Thanks!

Start simple: use just one stick of RAM, unplug all USB devices, and if you have a built-in GPU, take out the dedicated one. You might be able to spot the issue that way!

Before you rush to replace the PSU, try to check if that’s really the issue. Head to a PC shop; they usually have spare PSUs and can test it for a small fee.
