Hello, i woke up this morning and tried to turn on my PC, my fuse jumped in my apartment, so i tried to turn it back on, the fuse jumped instantly again, i waited 2 minutes, tried again, it stayed in, but my PC wont turn on. I suspect its either the motherboard, the PSU or the case?. How can i determine which part it is? Fans do not turn on, but the small motherboard light does turn on. Motherboard: ASUS P8H77-V - board- ATX - USB 3.0 - HD Audio PSU: Thermaltake SMART M650W - PSU ( intern ) - ATX12V 2.3/ EPS12V Images while PC is running:
I suspect that PSU's protections kicked in. So try to completly discharge PSU (take power cord away and use on/off switch behind PSU). Then put it back online. If fuse still explodes, PSU has kicked on some protection, probably short circuit protection. Probable cause: PSU is internally broken or your motherboard (or other device) connects some wires together and it causes PSU to shut down. Bad PSU:s explode, so if that thing just shuts down, you have some quality.
