Fellow old timers, I need some help. Here's the scoop, I have a Antec Neo HE430 from 2005, a socket 1151 motherboard from 2015, Celeron G3900, and 16gb DDR4. The motherboard won't post, when I press power it spins the CPU fan and the LEDs turn on, then shuts down after 1-2 seconds.
I feel like the PSU should work, but am I wrong? The PSU was tested working in a Core i5-2400 desktop with DDR3 RAM. It has 24 pin and 4 pin ATX connectors, so mechanically at least it's compliant.
If I post this on Reddit I feel like every 20 y.o. kid is going to yell "Your PSU is too old, buy a new PSU" But there's nothing offered beyond a vague idea that old = bad. Is that true?
So I want to know what does AT forums think, is my PSU too old for this motherboard?
