Possible Hardware Failure?

[AhjinYeri]

Hi all,

So a few months ago I built my first PC, specs will be listed below. Everything went really well when it came to building the system but I’ve recently had the misfortune to come across an issue.

For the past few weeks now my PC sometimes won’t turn on until I’ve flicked the PSU on and off, I’ve never encountered this issue when building others’ PCs just my own and it’s starting to get worrisome and quite annoying.

So far I’ve tried clearing the CMOS, switching ram positions, reinstalling windows and so on. I’ve read around and saw that sometimes the PSU could be the culprit but I’ve used the same PSU in a hand-me-down PC and didn’t have a single issue. I’d also assume that if it was the PSU I’d be having other issues like random crashes etc. Other than that the PC works perfectly and I’ve haven’t encountered any other problems.

Would just like some input and possibly a solution from more experienced tech-heads on this matter.

Thanks!

No worries…

Found a problem your PSU is way under for what the display card requires.

I see.

Will buying a 850w PSU be enough to run the GPU and CPU?
