My desktop PC doesn't power up anymore but pulling the power cord out and waiting 30-60s fixes it. It powers on when the cord is plugged back in but doesn't complete the first boot, then powers back up automatically and usually starts
It's 7.5 years old intel 6600k and is only used for downloading/watching TV/movies in my living room on my OLED TV. I have a 3 year old Ryzen laptop I bought for my business, this also runs SF6 just fine. I don't play/buy games apart from a brief spell of classic WOTLK and SF6.
The desktop has a GTX 1650 Super that I could put in a new machine, the purchase of which could also go through the business. So just wondering whether best option is just buy a new PC and stick the GFX card in, or just buy a new PSU.
The new desktop could also become my main work PC as my home office desk is also in the living room. So I could run a HDMI or DP cable to the monitor. This could be advantageous for video editing, although most of my editing is just small trailers not full clips.
Storage space is also a factor as I have two HDs in the desktop for all the films/TV. At least one of those is ancient and I'm constantly deleting old shows I won't watch again to make space for new downloads. Although really the chances of me watching some of those shows again are non existent. I did recently buy a 2tb external ssd drive for storing my own content
