hey guys. This morning i was on my PC and suddenly, it shutted down. Like not with software, but hardware. Any idea's that could be the cause? I think it's my crappy Corsair PSU wich is now broken. If it is, i want all my money that i spended on corsair back. Wich is over 500 ?. Any help will be appreciated. Please help me to fix this.

I have this PSU:
Corsair HX1000W Modulair 1000 Watt
 
Trust me, i need that much.

erm. Let me find my build for a sec. It should be somewhere on this site :p.
 
Processor: Intel Core i7 950 @ 3.07GHz
Memory: Kingston 6GB (3x 2GB) 1600MHz DDR3
Hard Drive: 1TB
Video Card: ASUS Ati Radeon HD 5970 2GB
Monitor: SyncMaster (1400x1050@60Hz)
Headset: Logitech G35 Surround Sound Headset USB
Keyboard: G19 (going to upgrade to G19)
Mouse: Kudos gaming mouse black
Operating System: Windows 7 64-bit

^my rig. Might miss some details because it's outdated. Upgraded few things and some corsair stuff is out it. and i CBF to watch in my case what is in it :l
 
my computer recently completely died, but 1000 watts seems like overkill for your system and 500 pounds does not seem right for that product, you should only need to spend 100-200 USD

the power supply you said cost aound $270 CAD (not on sale)

one i get my second GPU, i'll need those 1000. That's not the point of this thread either. The point is my PC wont start and i need to play CSS. Also, ALL my corsair products I bought failed. 300 € for the PSU, 50 € for a flashdrive, 250 € for my ram memory, ... . All broke within 4 weeks. I'm sick of corsair. I want my PC fixed, now. Djeez, than a guy has vacation, his friggen PC broke.
 
Sounds like your PSU died on you, newegg or ebay a decent PSU that wont kill the bank account and see if that corrects the problem. Ive heard very bad things about corsair products, and now that I read this I believe what I have read to be true.
 
I'm never buying corsair crap again. Good thing i didn't bought a watercooling from them!
