What is the brand and model of the PSU and which video card?

 

PLease explain this statement: " I did get it to boot after removing memory e8500 now it won't boot"

We have been able to get it to boot now but crashes or computer is running but no display comes up, I don't know the brand power supply as it is at his house. gpu gigabyte hd6850 the power supply was maybe corsair 650 I think modular, possible reasons faulty motherboard although runs fine with e5200, motherboard twisted heat sink to tight? Faulty CPU it is second hand or I bumped power cable will check all these, only thing I don't know tdp processor can the motherboard handle it, I have also updated bios, any other ideas turning to be upgrade from hell for me lol
