Hey OCN! So I just finished building my gal a gaming rig and I've come across a bit of a problem. Last night she called me and said that the computer was shutting off every 5 minutes or so. Well she calls this morning and says the things won't turn on at all. No lights, no fans, no noise, no nothing. Here are her specs
-AMD Phenom II X4 940 Deneb 3.0GHz Socket AM2+ 125W Quad-Core Black Edition Processor Model HDZ940XCGIBOX - Retail
-BIOSTAR TA790GXB A2+ AM2+/AM2 AMD 790GX ATX AMD Motherboard - Retail
-G.SKILL PI Black 4GB (2 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 800 (PC2 6400) Dual Channel Kit Desktop Memory Model F2-6400CL4D-4GBPI-B - Retail
-XFX Nvidia 8800 GT (from my old system)
-Some random PSU 650w (from my old system and was working flawlessly)
-Stock fans all around
Two days ago I was on this thing all day without a hiccup. But now she can't get anything. She has tried different outlets and what not and still nothing.
Is this a PSU issue? Maybe a cooling issue? What do you all think? Thanks for any help you can give.
