  • Preverite, ali je stikalo napajalnika v položaju »VKLOP«.
  • Verify that the front panel power switch cable is correctly connected to the motherboard's front panel header.
• Fans Not Spinning / RGB Not Lighting:
  • Ensure all fan power cables are securely connected to the motherboard or a fan controller.
  • For RGB, confirm that any necessary RGB headers are connected to the motherboard (though the included fans are fixed RGB and should light up with power).
• Brez izhoda za prikaz:
  • Verify that your monitor cable is connected to the graphics card (if installed) and not the motherboard's integrated graphics port.
  • Ponovno namestite grafično kartico v režo PCIe.
• Pregrevanje:
  • Za optimalen pretok zraka (dovod/izpuh) se prepričajte, da se vsi ventilatorji ohišja vrtijo in so pravilno usmerjeni.
  • Očistite morebitne filtre za prah in notranje komponente.
  • Verify that the CPU cooler is properly seated and making good contact with the CPU.
