AX860 suddenly not working

Recommended Posts

Hey guys,

 

I just built a new PC and it booted and worked just fine for a few days.

 

I didnt overclock anything and just installed Windows 10 and the drivers etc.

 

Today when i wanted to turn the PC on, nothing happened.

The PWR LED on my Motherboard was red/orange.

 

After checking all the cables etc. and nothing happened, i took the PSU out and tried the Paperclip Test. the fans and LEDs of my H440 didnt move nor light up.

 

Should i RMA it? Or is there somthing else i could try?

 

Sadly i am kind of the only computer enthusiast i know nearby and can't ask anyone to lend me a psu to try to start my pc. As this is my first Desktop in a long time i don't have one lying around either.

 

Speccs:

Intel i5-6600k

Asus Sabertooth Z170 Mark 1

MSI GTX 970 Gaming G4

Corsair h100i GTX

HyperX 2x8GB DDR 4 Ram 2133 MHZ

Corsair AX 860

 

Thx in advance for your help!

Do the paper clip with only a fan plugged in. For all you know, there's a short in the H440 and that's what's keeping it from powering on.

 

You'll need to have a fan plugged in because the AX860 PSU fan won't spin with no load.
