Corsair Mike Posted December 13, 2017 Share Posted December 13, 2017 It certainly can if you have a piece of hardware drawing more than is in spec or is shorting out the PSU it could be tripping one of the safety features on the PSU. Something you may want to look at is checking how you have the AX1500i plugged in to the components. Do you have the Link cable plugged in to the PSU?

Joey117 Posted December 14, 2017 Author Share Posted December 14, 2017 Yes i have the Link software and link plug in to the PSU but i have very little knowledge on how to use the software for trouble shooting Thank you for the reply , I'm not sure if it's a power supplied problem it is only for 5 months old and the motherboard has been giving me trouble slow boot up times 7 + minutes along with their One faulty RAM slot and the hard drive SATA controller is going I think Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsair Mike Posted December 19, 2017 Share Posted December 19, 2017 Sounds like it might be the board. If you already have a bad slot on the board that would be my first guess. If the board isn't pulling what it should you could be triggering any of the safety features on the PSU. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joey117 Posted December 19, 2017 Author Share Posted December 19, 2017 Just a quick update I took my power supply unit to professional who tested it and found it is faulty again the second psu in four months does anyone know of any other PSU that uses the same wiring kit as ax1500axi so I do not have to complete rewire the pc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsair Mike Posted December 21, 2017 Share Posted December 21, 2017 Any of the Corsair PSUs that use the type 3 cables RM not the RMi PSU's, HXi Serises and the AX1200i and 1500i. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
