rig cannot even startup???

Hi guys this happened just today... when I pressed the power switch, I can hear the system coming on but after like 3 or 4s it will power off. Then after a few seconds more, it will repeat the above! All the while there will be nothing displayed on the screen. Does anyone knows which part is spoilt???

Sounds like PSU.. u have a spare PSU to try?

Hmm I do not have a spare one...however I think I have warranty for it. Bought it from pc themes , fsp 500w hexa series 80+ bronze psu. It is advisablw to send it in for warranty claim or just buy a new one?

Send in for warranty. Distributor address as per below:

Tech Dynamic Pte Ltd
514 Chai Chee Lane #05-15
Singapore 469 029

However best to confirm it is 100% your PSU before bringing it down. I had a similar problem as yours before, for me, it was the PSU.

Many thanks for the advice! All I need to bring down is the psu unit ans the reciept from the retailer right? Its okay even though I have never registered online right?

Oh ya how long does it takes?=)

Yup. Just PSU n receipt will do. They will test the PSU for u, if found to have problems, 1-1 Exchange on the spot if they have spare sets. If not, they will let u know how long. Good luck
