Think my PSU has died. Its one of those HiperX ones thats a modular PSU and was around £70 when i bought it. Tried to turn PC on this morning but nothin is happening. Usually have red lights and all sorts on inside the case even if the PC itself isnt turned on. My thoughts would be PSU and i cant see any burnt components or anything so thats my guess. Any tests i can do before i shell out for another PSU?

Cheers
