PC unable to boot.

[chaotamianbao]

Hello all, need some help here.
Just tried to start my pc but altho fans start running but there's no image.
Opened up my case just to see if any cables loose then when I touch the "blue part" of the motherboard (sorry dunno what is this called) it feels rather hot.

Is this normal? And sign that my motherboard has gave way?

the blue part also called heatsink for vrms. but maybe u can try removing that gpu of yours and use onboard gpu totest and see?

 

[chaotamianbao]

Yes. But I mixed corsair rams and gskill rams after I got back my gskill rams from rma

His Asus M5A97 EVO don't has onboard gpu.

In that case should I get a cheap graphics to test if it is the gpu problem?

could be ram problem also. try booting your com with 1 ram stick first.

You swap with other piece in different ram slot?

yeah i did. with different combinations.

normally when i start the com without keyboard and mouse plugged in, there is a BEEP sound. this time there isn't any.

bring down to nigel and let him check and see.

 

[chaotamianbao]

Maybe to add on. It was working well the previous day before shut down..

Ok. Shall test the gpu and if that fails I'll bring it to nigel. Thanks all for the advice!

Anyone has any idea what does it mean if the VGA led is lit up ?
Tried to google and swapped the PCIE slot but still the same error LED

could be either issues, your VGA slots is spoil or dustly else, could be the gpu issues.

Bring the whole cpu case to Nigel.
