Only the fans spin

@marble flint Most Motherboards have status lights that give you an idea what's wrong. Check and see if you have any of those.
Also if you could tell us what motherboard model you have, that would help too.

system specs?

Have you/your friend tried to reinstall the cooler again to see if anything was possibly done wrong?

#

Possibilities that come through my head:
CPU not installed correctly
PSU cables not fully inserted
GPU not installed correctly

#

Definitely a possibly

#

If he overtightened the screws on the cooler

#

Did you remove the cooler to take a look at it

#

To see if you could physically see anything

marble flint
#

like new

#

the gpu works

#

he put it into his rig

#

and it displayed

wintry grove
#

Is his rig AMD/AM4

#

If so you can try swapping the CPU

marble flint
#

yes

#

i dont have a sapre

#

it was working before i brought it to him

wintry grove
#

Is he willing to try taking out his CPU and put yours in his system to see if it works

marble flint
#

sure i can do that tmmr

wintry grove
#

Also you can try swapping your RAM for his. Unlikely that's it but it's an easy attempt

marble flint
#

what is the chances the cpu is dead

#

the mobo should be good cause there is power and fans spin

wintry grove
#

Unfortunately I think there's a decent chance it's the CPU

#

But there's a chance it's the chipset on the motherboard or something

marble flint
#

thats good its a new cpu i still can still exchange

#

not worried about that

#

will best case

#

i dont want a new mobo

wintry grove
#

Yeah new mobo's are a pain

#

But I would first try RAM swap since it's easy, then try CPU. If the CPU works in your friend's system then it's the mobo, if not it's probably the CPU.

wintry grove
