    Don't say that, I'll end up back on here in 6 months complaining about my new Ez Cool PSU haha.

    Thanks for your help, and any help I may receive from here on in. Going to leave the topic unsolved till a new PSU is fitted and I can confirm

    You have a relatively low spec system that doesn't use much power.

    What PSUs can you find from your suppliers in the 300 to 450 watt range, from these brands, in your price range: Seasonic, Antec, Corsair, XFX?

    EZ Cool is a fake name of some kind. I'll guarantee you it wasn't made by "EZ Cool". Another EZ Cool may work fine, but why increase your risk unnecessarily?

    This XFX is likely made by Seasonic and would be fine:

    MrRevolutionary,
    The CPU heat sink and cooler isn't going to be the issue as your not posting to it yet. But do please see if you can wiggle the Northbridge or Southbridge heat sinks. The NB heat sink if loose will not let the system post to the CPU till it's in good contact. Likely you checked this but just want to make sure you weren't thinking I was discussing your CPU cooler.


    Apologies, I misread your first post. Just checked the NB and SB heat sinks and they both seem pretty tight, no play in either of them at all really
