Hello,
On odd occasions, my PC just won't switch on for a while. Switching it off at the mains and leaving it for a while seems to reset whatever the problem might be, but it's been going on for a while now, and I wanted to ask for some help.
A friend said that this is probably due to a malfunctioning power supply installed, and that it could affect the rest of the tech if left unchecked. Just to be sure, I figured I would ask others for more insight.
My current power supply is:
XFX XTR 750W 80+ Gold Certified Fully-Modular ATX Power Supply
If this is the issue, it will obviously need replacing, but should I upgrade or buy the same hardware?
Here is the rest of my PC's build in case something else could be the problem:
CPU: Intel Core i7-6700K 4.0GHz Quad-Core Processor
CPU Cooler: Phanteks PH-TC14PE_BK 78.1 CFM CPU Cooler
Motherboard: MSI Z170A KRAIT GAMING ATX LGA1151 Motherboard
Memory: Corsair Vengeance LPX 16GB (2 x 8GB) DDR4-3000 Memory
Storage: Crucial MX300 525GB 2.5" Solid State Drive
Storage: Seagate Barracuda 1TB 3.5" 7200RPM Internal Hard Drive
Video Card: MSI GeForce GTX 1070 8GB Video Card
Thank-you in advance. I'm not incredibly tech-savvy, so I didn't just want to buy the newest Power Supply in case it wasn't compatible with the rest of the build.
