Very weird issue has occurred, never before has this happened to me.
I was down stairs cooking, PC was on and working, I come up stairs and it’s off. I try powering it on and it instantly turns off. We are talking like half a second and it’s off. So I assumed it was a PSU issue. I unplug the 6 pin out of my GPU (I have a 6 and an 8 pin) and it booted up. Nothing came on my screen, but it booted up. Does this mean my PSU is not giving enough power? When I plug the 6 pin back into the PC while it’s on, it instantly shuts down
PC specs
i9 9900k 8 cores 16 threads
GTX 2060
16gb DDR4 ram
1 TB HDD x2
250gb SSD
750W Power supply
PSU’s are much cheaper than a GPU. So if anyone who’s been doing PC’s for a long time knows, please let me know! Also, the power supply is pretty old. It was around 160 when I got it 5 years ago. (Might be older)
