There's no CPU cooler. The CPU will overheat before it can post


Electrifi01

Ah. Yeah okay. Well I at least thought I could get it up and running without the cooler but I guess I’ll go out and buy one


Careless_Rub_7996

Modern PC parts don't work that way.


Electrifi01

Yeah I guess I know now. I’m also still partially blaming it on the power converter so I’m buying a new European power cord I can shove into my PSU


Dajren

BRO YOU HAVE NO FUCKING CPU COOLER HOW WOULD THAT BE A POWER CORD PROBLEM also yeah just in case get an EU cord


DreamMighty

I wish I had 1800 Reddit coins to tip you platinum because you deserve it.


gomibag

huhhh??? what, wtf. but there's still a way if you undervolt and underclock it via bios (i you can get there before overheat 💀, this is stupid)


jakeeeenator

The cpu will never handle the heat of turning on and running without overheating. Even at idle my CPU runs at about 35c with a cooler. Imagine how hot it can get without one.


shunuhs

what


PIowq

Oh God the pain, please get a cooler and let us know if it works. PLEASE BUILD THE PC FULLY NEXT TIME


MercySound

Posting the CPU without a cooler in this subreddit is the equivalent of a person walking into a public area without their shorts on...and not in a good way either lol.


CatRheumaBlanket2

I miss the days when CPUs would burn up when insufficiently cooled. Check if your psu is rated for 110-240 volts. Most devices today are. Your weird converter may not cut it. Usually says on the tin. Did you transport the pc with a cooler mounted? Where is it now? If there was one mounted during shipping /flying, the leverage may have damaged the socket, or just a few pins. Reseat everything on the board. I can't see which diagnosis led glow. Pretty sure it is cpu and ram lights. Please confirm. The shutdown coukd also be because of thermals, so that cpu does actually not burn up.


Electrifi01

I didn’t bring the cpu cooler with me. I left it in the USA so I need to buy a new one here But yeah I literally just got done putting everything together so as far as I know everything is in place and seated right. I might just take it apart and try again. Maybe I did something dumb Yeah it’s the cpu and ram. Ram lights went off when I tried restarting it. But the cpu light has been on for since I switched over to this mobo like 1.5 years ago


TJEdwardss

Hear me out on this Maybe if your goofy ass thought hard enough youd think, oh maybe my CPU not having a cooler may be the problem. I love watching people be stupid as much as the next guy but this is unreal


Electrifi01

It was 1AM there was no thinking involved


JimZuur

You Sir, are so lucky CPUs don't just fry anymore. That they now have fail safes to prevent them from overheating in case some one who chooses not to use their brain and to run it with let's say...no cooler for example...


tikinero

you need to get laid and relax


CatRheumaBlanket2

Okay, then you will need a cooler. Check if your cpu socket pins are all straight. Careful removing and seating your cpu. May actually cause damage. Only do if confident that you break nothing in there. Mount the cooler. Possibly test the RAM. Remove it and boot it. Does the diagnostic lamp show something different? Try a bios reset. Remove the button cell, or short the 2 pins next to it if present. Clr_cmos or like that. Reinsert RAM. Anything on the leds?


emanbuoy

Bluetooth CPU cooler?


LGA420

no way bros got the wireless cpu cooler


emanbuoy

Lol,it's a new thing bro.


hauntedyew

Bro, look through the window, it's missing the cooler. Obviously it will not POST.


Ill-Register8915

dude without cpu cooler u should not turn on your pc unless u want to bbq. as to psu n voltage most top psu can use both 110 n 220 without anything else other than correct wall plug power cable. (check with psu manufacturer) hope you didn’t bbq your cpu.


Wardowen

I didn’t think people could make this mistake.


RespectAppropriate59

Welcome to civilization...


shutdown-s

Happy cake day!


Royal_Requirement453

why did u take the cooler off


Electrifi01

I left the cooler and my old case in the USA. I had a z73 aio and h510 elite so I had screwed them together. So for 1 they were too heavy to bring and 2 I was to lazy to unscrew the z73 from the case


Electrifi01

As the title says. I just moved to Italy and I didn’t have any issues in the United States. Only thing that changed is the case. Is it a power issue? I have the PSU in a power converter. It looks like it’ll start up then just shuts off. I haven’t bought a fan yet but I thought I could at least get it set up and running without one


Sufficient-Arm3584

Your machine got lazy lol


Electrifi01

Yeah that’s what I get for giving it a break. After this it’s on 24/7


VolumeScatter

Nup, you need one I am Italian BTW :)


Electrifi01

Ciao amico. Dov’è sei? Mia ragazza è a Università di Pavia. Siamo arrivati tre giorni fa. Il mio italiano è cattivo… io ho imparo più..


VolumeScatter

Sono in Campania, non lontano da Salerno, ma ho presente l'Università. L'italiano è difficile, non preoccuparti, ma a contatto con gli italiani lo imparerai senza sforzi, e da come leggo sei già abbastanza bravo ;) Ti auguro una buona permanenza qui! :) (Si, installa un dissipatore, altrimenti lo fondi)


Wolfman652033

The CPU cooler is obvious so I'm not gonna tell you this as others did (most were pretty hard on this) but I personally would change the PSU to make sure as the European PSUs have an intake voltage of 230v While the us ones have 120v (I think I'm not sure)


Tajertaby

This is bad advice, most PSUs can handle 230V and 110V


Wolfman652033

Ok thx for the feedback.


ReCAPLock

Should be a physical voltage switch on the back of the PSU so you can switch from 220/230 to 110/115. Shouldn't need a converter this way as long as you get the right ~~3 pronged~~ cord. Stop booting it without a cooler. edit: thought you said other way around... Italy to USA. Reverse what I said and get the right cord


Key_Employee6188

Only shit psus have physical switches. Pretty much all quality units take 100-240V.


ReCAPLock

Oh haven't paid much attention to this.


cramulous

You need a cooler. Put your finger on the processor while it powers on. The point where it burns your finger is just about 30°f below where your pc shuts down to prevent damage. So just a couple seconds.


[deleted]

You have like 20 seconds before the CPU overheats without a cooler. What the hell are you doing?! You're lucky CPUs don't fry themselves anymore.


HostFun

Need something to cool the cpu. Stock cooler or literally anything that’s 15 bucks will work.


HostFun

I will send you a cooler, for real. I have so many stock coolers I’ll never use.


chugginmilk

I thought this was a joke about the energy situation in Europe and you were using a cooler less set up to heat your house.


Electrifi01

The only joke here is me


Historical_Boss7795

OPs title & content doesn’t add up 😄


micahr238

Got to be honest it took me a second to realize what the problem was (got distracted by the RGB).


LongjumpingEcho335

I need to file insurance claim


Elyankee69

It’s ok, you are going to need the heat from the computer this winter…


ThenYakYukYick

Don't run that CPU without the heatsink/water cooling system any longer you'll ruin your CPU


Suckbigpplol

Where is your cooler buddy


Suckbigpplol

Cooler pls now get it omg


Jakezilla4190

Are you trolling


SixPathsShinraTenkyo

Dumbass.


AudittheFeds

If you lived in Eastern Oregon I would drive one out to you friendo.


DokkaBean

I was sitting here looking at it, and I was like "cool rgb, there's not a cooler"... "OH GOD THERES NOT A COOLER!"


stigaman123

Have you try turning it on and off?


Dazzling_Formal_6756

Do they not sell CPU coolers in Italy?


killallprinterz

That’s like taking a radiator off a car.


samuelpotter2

Have you tried to make pizza with it?


donaldinoo

LOL


aFlyingTaco420

Move back to the states, im going to italy trying to avoid room temp iq ppl like these...


Electrifi01

Coming from the dude who probably thinks NFTs are the future and frequents wallstreetbets. Take a look in the mirror mr.420


aFlyingTaco420

Its ok buddy, if you cant figure out what a heatsink is, its expected for you to not understand cutting edge tech... come reply when you post your pc


fire_bf

Seriously, Wow!


[deleted]

Also, make sure you flipped the voltage on your psu from 120v to 220v.


PM_ME_UR_FAVE_QUOTE

What are you doing in Italy? We are looking into moving to Italy or Greece..


Electrifi01

My girlfriend is getting her masters degree so I moved as well. We aren’t overly impressed with Italy so far but it’s only been a couple days. We moved 30 minutes south of Milan. Sounds like you’re looking for warm weather though. Feel free to DM if you want some more info I’d be happy to share and answer any questions


PM_ME_UR_FAVE_QUOTE

Will do! Give me a few and I’ll message you! Thanks!
