PowerPlay226 Posted October 24, 2020 Share Posted October 24, 2020 Hi, I've got the Corsair TX750M installed, and the fuses in the cable keep blowing when the Computer is turned off, I've changed the power cable and fuse which are 5A fuses, I ordered the pc pre-built and wondering is a 5A fuse enough and whether to put in a 10V or 13V. If you brought the same power supply what fuse did it come with? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or are you literally flipping the switch off that provides power to the PSU? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsair Employee jonnyguru Posted October 24, 2020 Corsair Employee Share Posted October 24, 2020 Also, 5A sounds really low. I think most PSUs of that wattage come with a 10A fused power cord. Thought I wouldn't just replace the fuse with a larger one as the construction of the cord may not handle the higher current. I would get a power cord that actually comes with a 10A fuse.

Yes I'm in the UK, sorry I turn off by Windows, Start then Shutdown I've never flipped the switch on the PSU Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then the fuse shouldn't be blowing because the bulk caps are still charged. What's the lot code for your PSU?

PowerPlay226 Posted October 25, 2020 Author Share Posted October 25, 2020 I tried a power cord that came with a 13A fuse, connected and the lights came on the keyboard, but as soon I pressed power the switch in the main fuse off down stars went out off. Also, I found a longer number beginning 20 the first eight digits are 20034852 I'll DM you the ticket number, thanks for your help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So the build should be under warranty. The builder is local to you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The builder is local to you? I did yes, I'll contact them, the builder's not local to me. I brought from https://www.awd-it.co.uk they delivered by delivery service; reckon I'll have to send it back. Can't think what could have damaged the PSU Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
