Over our years of experience, there’s very little that our techs haven’t seen from a support standpoint, but one of the most common has always been power supply failure. Here are the top signs that your power supply may be failing.

    Hey yall thank you for this video, so with my pc I start it but I get no display the first start up. BUT when I turn it off then turn it on again it boots up like normal. Before what my Pc was doing before this was when I started it up it immediately turned off then a few seconds later like 5 sec it would boot up normally? Ive made sure all cables are plugged in, Ive also reseated everything. Would this be a psu problem at this point?

Everything is plugged in and when I flip the switch of the power supply, I see no light on my motherboard. When I try to turn it on, it doesn’t turn on. Does this indicate my power supply died Or could there be other problems?

    my pc shuts down unexpectedly when playing high intensive games for an hour but doesnt reboot, I have to manually turn it back on, no other symptoms on the video. I have a rtx 2060 and ryzen 7 5800x, and my psu is rated 650 watts and 80+ gold. Is my psu at fault here or is it something else? Things I have already checked off the list as not being a problem is memory, temps, and drivers.

I did a factory reset and the gpu is working fine ig (but it makes lag spikes in games after some time so I need to give it a break. This might be an overheating problem.).

    Ever since the most recent update with windows 10 my PC crapped out on me frying both of my SSD drives and corrupting them. I tried the SSD drives in this laptop my buddy gave me and they did not work. I tried the old archaic hard drive from the laptop in my PC Got fried then my PC went into spontaneous reboot. But when I took that hard drive out and put back in both of my SSD drives it was loading normally at start up then gave a error saying I need to have a internal drive with windows. Give or take this PC is 10 years old my brother hand built it 10 years ago then I bought it off of him two years ago and it was working perfectly fine up until the moment I went to update it then it had crashed and both of my ssd's are now fried. Should I just get a whole new PC instead of frying new hardware trying to locate the problem ?

It was like the PC was off but I could still hear audio. It’s not the gpu because I’ve swapped to my old one already. I’m almost finished the ram test and it says no problems yet. I’m just thinking it’s between mobo and psu but does this sound like it could be a psu issue? The psu fan is working.

    What if you have a 3 monitor setup, all screens connected to one GPU and you have these symptoms randomly, not very often, accruing: - when pc is started from turned off state (cold) the GPU fans will go off like turbines, no picture appears on the screens and the pc doesn’t Boot at all. The pc will stay in this state until power is disconnected and will eventually come back to life after several boot try’s. - when the gpu gets load, in my case typically when showing the 3d printers movement in the slicer software, the screens will go black. I can then still connect to my pc sometimes using TeamViewer as the pc is still working, but without picture output on the screens. To then shutdown and restart the system correctly. In 80% of the time this works. If not, I have to force shut down the system by the power switch or power cable unfortunately - my ram is ok, all the other hardware works just fine when the pc is working. But sometimes, it behaves like described. Faulty capacitors in my PSU? The system is 11 years old now (i7, 16GB Ram, SSD raid) and is still ok for me - but maybe 11 years is to much for some components. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance and happy New Year’s 🎆

    Brand new sealed pack RMA PSU CORSAIR shows 8 volt in 12 volt line in bios. I got it RMA because of the same problem in old PSU. Attached new PSU. First 4 minutes shows 11 volt. Then black screen. Again checked this new one is also showing 8 volt in red colour on a 12 volt line. Is it because of faulty mother board 🤔 please help 🙏 or my gpu is crushing every other components 😢 i have suspicion on motherboard on rank 1, gpu on rank 2, and rams on rank 3. I use apc ups 1500va model to protect my pc.

Today i flipped the switch hit the power button, and nothing happened. i took several attempts. couple clicks and nothing. the last time it clicked a bunch of times and finally turned on. it was like trying to start a car that ran out of gas.

    I do have some questions if anyone can answer them. I have been getting kicked out of a lot of my games and an error message will always occur through the game itself. For instance, on the finals, it will kick me out after the game stutters a little bit and it’ll give me some errors I’m thinking that it’s my power supply not giving my system, enough power or something like that, maybe it might be the ram if anyone has any information, please let me know😁🙏

    @@VelocityMicroPC Hi. I replaced the PSU but I'm still facing the same problem. The PC store's engineer from where I bought the PC says there's something wrong with the power supply of my house because my PC ran without any issue at the store. I thought it was because the AC was turned on at the store while not at my home which led me to replace the PSU with higher operating temperature of 50°C but still no hope. ☹️ Can you guess the problem? Please help. Here are my system configuration: 1. GPU : Sapphire Nitro Plus AMD RX 7800XT 2. CPU : Ryzen 5 7600X 3. RAM : XPG DDR5 16 GB @4800 Mhz 4. Motherboard : MSI B650M GAMING PLUS WIFI 5.

    Few days ago I decided to clean my PC, so I used a blower (I turned off the power and I also didn't touch any equipment, I didn't unplug any wire from GPU, CPU, mainboard etc...) after I finished with the cleaning I came to turn my PC on but it went off right after I turned it on... so I decided to test few things, like I detached the RAMs and changed their places and I also switched the power outlet (instead of using multi outlet I connected PC straight to the outlet) so the thing happened was that PC stayed on for a longer time (few more seconds) but it still went off and turned on again by itself... it's more like a restart loop... rn I connected the monitor but I don't have a screen at all not even mainboard logo and literally black screen...

    It's possible. The red CPU light would indicate the CPU has detected a failure of some type. If a bad GPU is the cause of the CPU error, it could show as a CPU issue. But honestly, either one could be the source of the problem.

    My pc sometimes starts up but sometimes doesn't. When it doesn't start up, it either: 1) Starts up cpu fan, and cpu fan stops immediately. 2) OR Doesn't start up cpu fan at all. When I switch off the power at the plug and on again, unplugged most of usb devices, it can turn on. Plugging back those devices, the pc still continue running fine. But when I let it sleep, it can't turn back on. Before the first incident of not being able to start up the pc, I might have heard some louder fan noise sometimes from the PSU. Is this a PSU problem?
