    How bad of an issue is GPU sagging and should we really spend on products like support struts?

    PC Won’t start up with CPU Power Plugged in

    Not sure to be honest, I would swap each part out to check if they were at fault to narrow it down, starting with the easiest part and working my way round to the motherboard which would take the most effort to swap out
