Hi bro,

I tried the turn on turn off switxh behind no response, psu fan not turning but when psu is on switch i can see a green light at the back. is mobo colour?
I suspect could be faulty psu liao. Any other advice or diagnosis welcome*!!!

Most probably your PSU bloom.

How old is the entire rig?

Less than a yr. The thing is cause using lian li case inside squueze a watercooler also so if need change anythung inside really need dismantle lots of stuffs and i dun darw try..
Any diy hobbyist staying bishan area? If interested to help me get new psu 650++ modular or 2nd hand one in good working condition will pay u $ (quote me ) for ur effort together with price of rhe psu (new/ 2nd hand) . From what i can recall the faulty psu was a good modular one so if u prefer to keep it for urself and rma whatever instead of the labour fees fine with me too.

If anyone interested...shoot me a msg

Can take a pic of your casing to see how much work would be needed?

What is the model of your faulty PSU? Maybe if you can get 1-1 exchange then you'll save some $$

TS is not even confident he can change a PSU, which is largely plug-and-play. And you suggest him to open up his PSU to change a fuse? :s22:

The system is less than a year old, the PSU most likely under warranty. Open up the PSU to replace a blown fuse (if any) will result in warranty void, why would you even suggest changing the fuse since TS wasn't even able to perform simple diagnostic let alone open up the PSU chasis? A careless touch on the pair of 400volts primary stage capacitor is not fun at all.

As a matter of facts, one should never simply replace a blown fuse without knowing why the fuse blown in the first place.

Don't change the PSU by yourself if you have no experience.
EVEN WITH THE POWER OFF THE CAPACITORS INSIDE CAN STILL HOLD ENOUGH CHARGE TO KILL YOU.
I got shocked before really not fun.
