Hi, pay attention to the socket, the i5 2500 is a 1155 compatible cpu, so you need a lga 1155 motherboard.

No. 4th gen core processors are on socket 1150, not 1155 like your 2500. You would need at least a 8 or 9-series motherboard to use a Haswell CPU. Your only options for CPU upgrades are 2nd and 3rd gen procs on skt1155.

Your Core i5 2500 is plenty fast for most games and applications. Personally, I think upgrading from Sandy Bridge to Haswell isn't really worth your time or money. If you want better framerate and performance in games you could upgrade your videocard instead, e.g. to AMD's R9 290 series card.

I would not be surprised if your power supply is to blame.

IF the motherboard is faulty, you might be able to snag a second hand board for a pretty cheap price.

You might have knocked something loose while you were cleaning. Try re-seating all your connectors, RAM, GPU etc.

Re-seating everything still helps even if you think everything is okay. An over-tightened CPU cooler can also have a similar impact so it's still worth while to do it anyways.

Exactly it doesn't take long to give everything the once over and make sure it's all properly connected/seated
