Can i power on pc without cpu?

[dominicky]

It sounds like a stupid question and it is maybe. but can i power up my pc without cpu to see if everthing is connected correctly?
Cause my cpu comes over 4 days.

No, cpu is like the heart.

[dominicky]

Yeah im not mean to boot the pc

[WarmedxMints]

You can't boot or do anything. Maybe listen to an audiable error message from your bios, that's about it.

[dominicky]

Just if the pc gets his juice

Yes you can turn it on but it will not post.

[⛧EyMi Mayhem⛧]

Why the stress, just wait the few days for your cpu...

[dominicky]

If you already have all parts installed instead of the CPU go ahead and turn it on. You will see what happens yourself. LEDs will light up and fans will start spinning etc.. but nothing else happens.

Oke happilly😓
Cause my previous system was also blew up.
(Im sorry for my bad english, i come from the netherlands.)

The only thing you can test by doing this is if you connected the power supply correctly to the motherboard...nothing else.

Oke, ive got a rgb mobo so gonna see if that works.

Seriously, just wait til you have your parts, you mount the CPU, Cooler and RAM all when the Motherboard is on a flat stable surface, like the Motherboard box, not when the Motherboard is already inside the Case.

Yes thats the best option.
Im just curious with my new parts😀👍

If you have the Motherboard and Case already, and awaiting other Parts, read the Motherboard manual. You could also configure any stand-offs you may need inside your Case to prep for the Motherboard. Make sure only stand-offs for the actual motherboard holes are present, no extras, at least where the actual motherboard will be placed. Install the Motherboard rear i/o shield, mount drives if you have them (but be careful of flimsy trays, if it uses those)... mount Case Fans, Power Supply...

That's one way to get started.
