CyberB Posted December 28, 2022 Share Posted December 28, 2022 Greetings! I have a HX1000i that I am having problems connecting to an older motherboard, ASUS STRIX Z-390E and using this with a ASUS TUF 4080 video card. The video card gets power (red light ). However, when I try to power up, the system seems to come up for a few seconds and then shuts down. The only way to re-power is to then toggle the power switch on the supply. I tried removing the 4080 video card and going back to my original setup with a NVidia 1060. The only difference here is that I removed a EVGA 750 and replaced it with the HX 1000i. The HX1000i won't power this either - it starts to boot and shuts down in a few seconds. Admittedly, I left the same connections for the AIO cooler and fans and just plugged these in to the new supply. Any thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeDoyen Posted December 28, 2022 Share Posted December 28, 2022 Did you use the EVGA cables or the corsair ones? If you used the EVGA, you are most likely triggering short circuit protection on the PSU, since the pinouts are different from brand to brand You'll need to use the corsair cables.

CyberB Posted December 29, 2022 Author Share Posted December 29, 2022 The only cable mix I had were to the SATA drives. I replaced all those cables too with the ones that came with the HX 1000i, but still no luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solution CyberB Posted January 1 Author Solution Share Posted January 1 This was a bad PS - DOA, new. I returned and replaced with a new unit. So far, no issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
