Now, I don't even hear a clicking sound at start. I removed all the blades, still no click. I see only 1 yellow light (next to the PCI connection), but no red light (next to Ethernet).
Will it help if I replace the PSU, or is this cube dead forever ?

You should have 2 green power LED's I presume the it s one for each PCIE plug. I am not sure if the green LEDS are pre fuse or post.

If the LEDs are powered post fuse then it may be the fuse that is the problem. In my cube the fuse holder or the soldering to the MB was faulty, the fuse over heated and destroyed itself, the fuse holder and burned a hole in the MB. I had to solder in an external fuse holder to resurrect the unit.

And you pretty much HAVE to strip the cubes BEFORE powering up to ensure that the blades have not become dislodged in transit and that the heatsinks are secured properly. The latter problem will cause overheating and the former could smoke the whole unit

I am just trying to run the board by itself first (or sometimes just 1 blade mounted). Will update when I get a newer PSU today. Hope that works!
