Should be the last update here. We're up and running! Everything looks fine.

Current temps
CPU 42c
GPU 58c
HDD 40c
MOBO 46c

The PSU fan is spinning at this temp. I'll keep an eye on it...

I don't have cpuz installed. I usually use speccy to monitor Temps. Right now cpu is running at 23c and mobo 35c. If I remember correctly, unload load it ran at about 60-70c? I'm not 100% sure on...

Yeah, I had to step out. I haven't ran the stress test yet. I'll be home shortly.

Yeah, it's set to active. The virus scan isn't getting the psu fan to spin. It spun on start up the stopped. Again,...

You guys are great here. I really do owe you all! I have one more question, if you don't mind. I know my psu fan won't spin unless it's under a certain load. Is there anyway to produce a load as such...

Got into Windows.

Well, it's been running off the corsair for about 15 minutes now. Are you saying leave the corsair running or seat the new evga?

It's a corsair hx750. I've had it for about 2-3 years.

I installed both sticks of ram and I got a single beep. I also got visual. Are there any other test I should perform before seating into the case?
...

To mention, I did not reseat the cpu. Haven't touched the cpu, or the fan.

Alright! We have some major progress here I repeated everything, pulled cmos battery for 5 minutes and replugged the monitor in. There is still no display BUT there are 5 beeps then a reset then...

Yes, speaker is connected. Ssd, hdd, and gpu are not connected. When I short the pins, there is no beep still. No lights and the cpu fan does not spin

Is there any way to tell if my cpu was is also gone?

Cpu - Intel Core i5-6500 6MB Skylake Quad-Core 3.2 GHz LGA 1151 65W BX80662I56500 Desktop Processor Intel HD Graphics 530-Newegg.com

Mobo - GIGABYTE GA-H170M-DS3H s USB 3.0 Micro ATX Intel...

To just test the mobo, cpu, and ram? Shorting the pins with a screw driver.

Tried just the cpu, mobo, and ram. I used the EVGA jumper and the psu is working fine. I did the paper clip test on my previous psu and it would spin for a second then die. Still, mobo is not booting...

I can not get into bios. There is no boot happening at all.

Swapped in the new psu with the cables it came with and same results. No fan spin, no beep, seems like it's it getting any power at all. Just worked 11 hours so I'm going to get some rest. I'll try...

That's what I plan on doing. If the new psu boots, old one is getting chucked.

I just ordered

EVGA SuperNOVA 650 G2 220-G2-0650-Y1 80 GOLD 650W Fully Modular EVGA ECO Mode Includes FREE Power On Self Tester Power Supply-Newegg.com

I'll update when it's installed.

I just realized I gave the wrong mobo if that matters. I actually own

GIGABYTE GA-H170M-DS3H s USB 3.0 Micro ATX Intel Motherboard - Newegg.com

I'll look now for a good psu. It doesn't have to...

Awesome! Thanks for finding this for me. Happen to find anything close to this but modular? If not, I'll definitely pick this up tonight.

That's what the consensus seems to be. I'll look into getting a new psu. If I read correctly, getting it tested would cost the same as getting a new unit? Either way, I'd rather get a new unit then...

Will try this when I get home.

Sorry. The complete model is

MSI H81M-E34 LGA 1150 Intel H81 HDMI SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 Micro ATX Intel Motherboard

I don't have the manual but can download it and find the jumper.
