Power supply bad or doing its job.

trued_2

So I just added an SSD and a Hdd to my computer, and now during the boot up process, it just dies. The power supply is a Coolermaster Silent Pro M2 1K watt http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817171076. I know our house had some old wiring and dirty power. I do not have a PSU tester. I did just go out and get a battery back up UPS, thinking with clean power it should boot right up. Should I just assume its a bad psu at this point? When i flip the power switch on the back there is an audible click from something in the power supply and a slight coil whine.

Pretty sure this is an issue with something else in your PC and not the PSU.

what also could be happening is that you accidentally unplugged something, because you shoulden't be maxing that PSU out

Well I took the water block off the cpu and the TIM looks horrible, it kind of looks veiny. The edges of the lid of the cpu don't look to good, I hope its not burned out. I just got it on black friday.

Also, is your pump operating?

At this point I am certain the Pump has failed, or to slow to keep up with the boot temps. I have since switched it out for the corsair H50? i was useing before with my 1100t. Booted up right off the bat. I took the CM pump off and checked thermal past 2x before i tried the h50(?).  I only found out it was the cooler because with ROGConnect it would power down at 55 degrees every time, error codes seemed random, tried adjusting the base clock and it didnt help. I will be bringing the CM cooler back to MicroCenter next weekend. After finding out the pump died, I then had to trick the northbridge into booting the ssds in AHCI, that took all day today. Its now running with the OS migrated to an 840, an added 3TB drive and a replaced sata cable bringing up an older drive.

 

Also I got a battery backup to make sure the psu was not protecting the rest of the pc, obviously the psu had nothing to do with it. I'm still keeping the backup though. I have enough hardware running for the $170 I spent on it to be worth the $500k warranty it brings.

 

Some weekend

 

BTW Thanks for the help.
