Im writing this for a buddy of mine hes putting new parts in his pc mob cpu video card. He is using the same psu from his previous setup it worked fine. Untill now itll turn on for a split second then instantly shut off, just cant figure out what could cause this.

Perform the paperclip test -

If it doesn't turn on, Contact Corsair for an RMA and they'll do the rest.

So did the test got the same results as befor being that the psu fan will kick on then off after a split second. Would that mean its a dead psup? Would be kind of odd since it was working fine during the morning befor he swapped the parts. Also thanks for the response.

Sounds like a trip in the under current protection. I advise your friend to contact Corsair for an RMA of the PSU.
