have you got a model number for that PSU, thats my first thought.

one of the first items on google about 'orion 585W' has someone complaining that after buying many of them they have changed the spec to 15A on 12V. Can you check your rating plate.

product has changed

I have been ordering these for a while for my shop. They have been extremely reliable, cost effective and have good power output ratings on the 12v. Unfortunately, on the recent order I placed I have noticed the ratings have changed from what's listed. They now only have 15A on a single 12v rail instead of "+12 V1/19A, +12 V2/20A" as listed. Manufacturers change their products all the time. I don't blame Directron but thought I'd give everybody a heads up on the situation.

sorry but i dont know i got it built at a local computer store.

look inside the case, you should see the power supply, it should have a plate giving the ratings.

If it is new and from a shop, it is not working, take it back.

there are only two stickers on my power supply. the first one reads (C HIP VBI ATE LIT) and the other says (Qc pass po2)

when i took back my computer to the store i bought it from and they checked it out they said nothing was wrong with it.

well, they have sold you a cheap powersupply, power supplies are the foundation to the system. Did you show them it stopping?

no they had a pre built gaming pc but the gpu was bad so all i did was ask for a gtx 580

 

[ITuckerz]

i thought you said shopping and no i havent had the time

 

[ITuckerz]

can someone please help me!!

 

[13thmonkey]

its the PSU, no fix without new PSU.

*** PSU cant handle the components. If you keep trying to run the PC with that PSu, you will probably permanently damage your components.

ok thank you ill go see what the computer store says

 

[13thmonkey]

you've got to show them it happening. else they will turn round and say its ok.
