Just playing devil advocate but double check that you have the correct mobo 8 pin power connected both to the mobo as well as the PSU. The 6+2 pin GPU cable looks very similar to it ! Also the CS series doesn't have a great reputation for quiet or reliability....just saying you may need to RMA and hopefully the PSU hasn't taken the mobo down with it?
It could be a faulty PSU, they can be defective out of the factory, just like anything else.
Put back your old PSU and see if the problem disappears.
BigMck: The problem with it were, there is no power when i press on. no fan turning no light on, after trying plug in and out or shaking it. i get it to on. But when it on two thing might happen, one, everything will work, two, fan turning light on but windows not booting up screen show no signal. Last problem is if i get it to run and working fine, till the shutting down part. screen will show no signal but fan will be still turning and light for the power is on but no flashing.
linnemeyerhere: my mobo is a 4pin not the new mobo 8pin, and it fix to psu same like the 24pin for mobo.
doctore: Hope not. basically my old psu is unable to support gtx970. at first i gotten myself a CS550M psu and after 1 week this problem occurred so my initial thought was the psu problem so i brought back to the shop and change it to a CS750M psu. all work well for 2 weeks then same problem happened.
Just a question to all. Could it be that my mobo is not compatible to the gtx 970 or is too old? i got this com at 2011 and its a stock mobo.
Thanks bigmck and everyone. Helpful or not i appreciate all the advise.
Well having to shake the rig to turn on is telling me that it's a connection issue and likely it's the PSU as all was fine before. As much of a pain as putting the old PSU in to test that would tell you right away if it's the PSU and then getting the RMA back to Corsair going right away.
Shaking it don't always sovle the issue. It just happen i gave it a shake it power on but the windows didn't boot.
