gordesky1 Posted August 13, 2006 Share Posted August 13, 2006 ok today when i woke up i seen that my computer was off so i say ok might of been my mom or dad turn it off. so i push the button and when i do the lights and fan just blinks and moves for 1 sec than goes right off except the power button. week ago i added a ultra xconnected 500watt green powersupply might of been a big mistake:( so what could be doing this something with the computer or the new powersupply?

ShadowPredator Posted August 13, 2006 Share Posted August 13, 2006 I have heard some bad stuff about the Ultra Series PSUs. Reason being is because the voltage on the 12V rail actually fluctates a lot more than you'd expect it to. I'd stay away from the Ultra's and go with a Seasonic, Antec, Fortron, Zippy, OCZ, etc. Something that you can trust. One thing I learned never skimp out on the power supply otherwise you could be up the creek without a padd.e Link to post Share on other sites
gordesky1 Posted August 13, 2006 Author Share Posted August 13, 2006 what dont get me is the powersupply was runing realy well. and all the volts was within the 5%. i just hope they give me the x2 ultra that suupost too be decent. Link to post Share on other sites
