Syfted Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 Alright folks. Totally clean board, nothing on it. ASUS P6T DELUXE. Have a crappy 450w that came with my case. It has a 20-pin and I adapted it to 24-pin. Plug it in, the onboard switches have a steady LED, I press power and the board powers on. Have a beautiful VX450w from Corsair. It has a 24-pin. I plug it into the board, the onboard switches FLASH repeatedly, I press power and get NOTHING. Of course I tried this with my CPU, RAM, etc. on and same effects. Unfortunately my crappy 450w doesn't have a 6-pin PCI-E, so I NEED my Corsair to work. By the way, my Corsair PSU DOES work with a different board... my multimeter also shows that nothing is wrong with my Corsair PSU. Something I noticed, the 24-pin on the Corsair has one missing pin. In the ASUS manual, this pin corresponds to a "Ground" pin. I thought that was odd, as I was under the impression it should be the -12v that was missing. ASUS Tech support was useless- their customer service was absolute garbage, and their techs were just horribly rude people. Help! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wired Posted January 27, 2009 Share Posted January 27, 2009 Please place your full system specs in your profile. Have you checked Corsair's PSU finder on their main page to see if this PSU has enough power for your system? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Syfted Posted January 27, 2009 Author Share Posted January 27, 2009 Just posted the specs. Yeah, the Corsair PSU Finder does come up with the VX450 for the system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
