so, i just bought a huge amount of parts:

  • fractal r5 case (?)
  • new i5 6600k skylake processor
  • asrock z710 pro 4 1151 motherboard
  • amd r9 390x
  • 16 GB ddr4 RAM
  • a new seagate 500GB SSD
  • seasonic modular 750W PSU

aaand of course when i put it all together i got constant bluescreening from driver issues (thanks AMD) and eventually the damn thing stopped turning on, so the place i bought the parts from took it in and are trying to figure out which part is causing it. it's a huge jump from my 8GB RAM A6 processor 750ti GPU machine.... and i have to pick it up later this week :( thankfully all the parts are covered under warranty, but i have no idea what was causing all of the issues. rrrrrrg

sounds like a mobo or psu issue
did you try directly sparking the two on pins to see if the case button was the issue?

yeah. i'm pretty sure it was the motherboard, because all of the memory bluescreening stopped after i upgraded the PSU (it was trying to pull power that wasn't there, i guess?) but i still got some driver issues, and when windows 10 rebooted in the middle of installing some drivers (god damn windows updates) it forgeted over the graphics driver and made the screen full of artefacts lol. that's when i decided to bring it in


atleast it isnt a nvidia card
isn't amd the one known for their stuffty drivers tho



good thing my gpu has perfectly reasonable temperatures and is also an nvidia card with good drivers


Guys, I found this.


It has a male connector with 5 pins at 9:00, 10:30, 12:00, 1:30, and 3:00. What the hell is this connector called?

Why not post a picture of it instead?

Sounds like PS/2 connector.

It's called an AT connector
