msxbr Posted December 2, 2013 Share Posted December 2, 2013 Something strange is happening with my PSU Corsair TX650, for example when I'm playing Battlefield 3 or any other game, when I close the game, the PSU fan speeds up and after a few seconds the fan stop. This started happening after I switched my old HD 7770, for a Zotac GTX650 TI boost. It's strange because the fan should spin while I'm playing, not when closing the game ... what can this be? thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peanutz94 Posted December 6, 2013 Share Posted December 6, 2013 msxbr, it may take 24-48 hrs or so before you hear anything. And this time of year with the holidays it may even be a bit longer. But i can assure you , they will respond to your ticket. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

simcard Posted December 7, 2013 Share Posted December 7, 2013 Hi. I replaced my power supply. The same place where buying. Problem solved. With your old video card power consumption is small and the fan on the power supply does not rotate. AMD Radeon HD 7770- 75-90W NVIDIA GTX 650Ti Boost- 130-140W ! When you change the video card power consumption increased. And there was a problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
msxbr Posted December 7, 2013 Author Share Posted December 7, 2013 Corsair support replied: I would not worry too much regarding this. When you close the application, it could be drawing additional power, putting the PSU in more load causing the fan to kick on faster. Rest assured that this will not damage your components. The fan turning on to a higher speed only indicates that its drawing more power from the unit, which put its under load. If you are not happy with your current product, we will be more than happy to replace the unit for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
