If you don't has a spare working PSU to test, I suggest you bring your rig to Nigel at: http://forums.hardwarezone.com.sg/hardware-clinic-2/%5Bsic%5D-new-setup-corner-all-diy-hardwarezoner-%5E-%5E-3581022.html

i got brand new unopened in full plastic wrap corsair CX500 -500W continuous output for sale 80+ bronze
I recommend you change PSU immediately because PSU faulty output voltage unregulated can overvoltage
damage all the motherboard, ssd, ram, etc in fact i advise you not to power on your CPU anymore. are you interested ?

Are you connecting its power over multi plugs extension? If so, please test that particular multi plug socket with another appliance.

It was an Andyson 650W. All my drives are undetectable by bios now. Trying to find a way to salvage the data......

G or F ...? The G is... rather crap. Not that the F is much better.

Anyway, both the G and F have comparatively lower wattage on the +12V rails. Old designs.

Under what conditions? Under load? At idle? Use multimeter and monitor the rail voltages.

I don't see any GPU listed.

Check the condition of your modular cables. Anything loose?

Is the PSU fan dead?

The warranty is over. You can crack open the case and look around for any bloated caps. Just ignore the caulk and don't rip that off!

Is a F. Doesn't matter now anyway......
