barnhartmd0519 Posted September 17, 2009 Share Posted September 17, 2009 Q: How can I test my power supply? A: You can easily test a power supply for functionality with a simple paperclip. First, disconnect all the cables from your motherboard and other devices, but leave the power supply plugged into the wall. Next, bend the paperclip until you have a U shape. Find the 24-pin ATX connector and plug one part of the paperclip into the socket where the green wire ends, and the other end into the socket where a black wire ends. Make sure the power switch on the back of the PSU is on, (should be the I symbol) and the fan should spin up. If it doesn’t, your power supply may be bad. Right from that link i sent u Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PCCstudent Posted September 17, 2009 Share Posted September 17, 2009 Power supply testers are available for a very low cost from many different sources. Now just what is tested is the question. These devices will give basic "is it dead" type info, not a detailed analysis of how well the P/S meets design parameters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
