  1. Seferio, I can confirm that the brand new 860i that Corsair sent me has failed again after less than a year o f light use. (I play Dota2 and not much else) The pbroblem is still there and exactly the same : shutdown and then power cycle indefinitely. I will re-send the unit of Corsair is OK, or loose more than 200€ if not... DO NOT BUY 860i under any circumstances, I have had 5 units and they ALL failed. The rest is commercial BS. And I'm not blaming Corsair because I have got about 20 psus from them ranging from 450 to 1200 watts and from SFF to Atx and they work fine. Some are noisy though. KR H.
  2. Ok mY bad, there is no such thing as a black and white AX860i. I suppose voids my question. Should I accept a RM850i as a replacement?
  3. Hi, mine are red and black. I think I saw that now the range is all black and white, like all other ranges. previously, HX was blue, AX red, CX green, etc.
  4. Just to add my little stone. I had 2 860i units replaced by Corsair since they had the (shut)down syndrome. of these two replaced units, One sits in a X79 system now (with an SLI) that draws about 650w and it is the happy part of my story : all works well. The other one sat on a shelf for a while and I recently installed it in an all new system (Z370) and it has given me a shut down out of nowhere already. That is about 1 week after first use. The system is not overheating at all, cpu, gpu and VRMS are at about 50% of their tmax under full load. MAX! I was watching youtube (not a big deal for a 8600k and a gtx980ti) and Poof, it shut down. I tried to push the power button but nothing worked. I had to shut down the psu (rear on/off), wait about 15secs and then power it up again for the system to power back up. I will probably send this unit back again. My question is : is the problem now solved with this black/white 860i's? I have to say the Corsair service is excellent, but I'm tired missing my top notch psus, shipping them and paying for it :) Regards, H.
