feeynx360 Posted December 4, 2007 Share Posted December 4, 2007 I have noticed that my new Corsair 620 tick very loudly during boot up then eventually goes away. It is quite cold in the room also. Is this a problem? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsair Employee RAM GUY Posted December 4, 2007 Corsair Employee Share Posted December 4, 2007 It should not be a problem, however are you sure it is coming from the PSU? You might try the test here:http://www.asktheramguy.com/v3/showthread.php?t=63991, and see if you are still getting the same sound. Although the ticking should not damage anything, the PSU should not be ticking. If you would like to get it replaced, then please use the On Line RMA Request Form and we will be happy to replace it.

feeynx360 Posted December 5, 2007 Author Share Posted December 5, 2007 Under heavy pc load I am seeing a major voltage drop in the +12v. Is this normal? http://i238.photobucket.com/albums/ff43/feenyx360/voltagedrop.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corsair Employee RAM GUY Posted December 5, 2007 Corsair Employee Share Posted December 5, 2007 If that were an accurate reading the system would have shut down. BIOS and software voltage measuring utilities can be off by quite a bit. To know the true voltage reading on the 12v rail you would need a digital multimeter.

feenyx360 Posted December 5, 2007 Share Posted December 5, 2007 Oh is there a way to delete my other forum account? I mispelled my handle on the first one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
