I am in the process of building a new server, but encountering a potential MB and/or PSU issue I am struggling to resolve. I bought one of Topton's N305 NAS motherboard from AliExpress and am wishing I didn't. It took over 2 months to arrive but now that I have it in a Fractal Node 304 with a be quiet! Pure Power 12 M 750W PSU, the server is failing to boot on. It switches on and immediately flicks off again; the fans on the MB and case manage to get a few rotations in, but that is it. This behaviour repeats every couple of seconds - power on immediately followed by power off...
I have unplugged all the peripherals so that it is just the MB connected to the PSU but the issue persists. It is entirely possible I have something hooked up wrong, but I am stumped as to what it could be.
Any thoughts would be welcome on what to do to troubleshoot the issue.
