Possible power supply problem

jagzc · Dec 27, 2013

Hi I just to see if anyone else has had the same problem, I get random power downs and shutdowns. Sometimes on boot up I get minimal power and it just starts to loop for ages.
I changed gfx card and the problem continues. Unplugged cd rom and all unused USB devices.

Today I had a bios message something CPU volts high. I checked my mobo and the +12v is running at 14v.

Is guess i need a new psu

Get a Reliable (Antec, Corsair, SeaSonic XFX Etc..) PSU now before it's too late.

Hi - what is the brand/model of the PSU? It appears you need a new one. What progam/device showed 14v on the +12v rail?

It's a corsir TX 620 and the bios told me the settings

Hi again - a tx620? might it be a tx650 or hx620? In any event, th TX series have 5yr warranties, and the hx620 also has a 5yr warranty. It is doubtful Corsair would give you a hassle if you RMA'd it due to the +12v being so far out of spec. (They just bill back the OEM, Seasonic), and are likely to replace the unit.

Yeh it was hx650 do you think it's possible that the rest of my parts might have been damaged by the over volts?
I read that the CPU cuts off ay 15 for safety ? I have requested my RMA

Hi - The rest of your parts should be OK. One of the benefits of using a higher quality PSU is for the
protection features they provide. I'd be shocked of that unit damaged anything but itself.
