Asus P6T Deluxe + PCP&P 750 Silencer Quad?

Tried booting the sig rig up with the PC Power & Cooling 750 Watt Silencer-Quad PCIe 80A Red Version

Now once everything was connected, the Lights on the Motherboard for the Power and Reset Light up, but it won't power up no matter what I did..

Now I just don't see how I could have missed a power plug, Standard mobo Power (24 pin?) is all the PSU had so That plugged in easly, and the 8 pin 12v Connector also no issues there.

Only thing that bugged me was a Pin connector above the CPU labled "CPU FAN" at which point liek all my other builds you connect the Fan for the HS. Only thing is, the pin connector is 4 pin? and the Fan that came with my U12P is 3 pin, but that doesnt seem to be a problem.. There is a 4 pin connector of some form with the PSU (instruction's Suck) but doesnt state where it would go, and Other than the CPU fan, there is no other 4 pin connector on the motherboard.

I don't know what is Supposed to connect to the connected labled "PWR FAN" but just looks like a normal 3 pin connector..

So Angry that my computer didnt work, I ripped my OCZ 600 watt out, and Frankensteined it on some boxes.

Using 2 4 Pin power connectors, and the 20+4 pin power, HS Fan connected to "CPU FAN" and the nifty little Shipset Cooler connected to "PWR FAN" (no different from before though.

Difference is, Computer boots up, Loaded Win XP on a fresh 250gb Drive that I had (only running 3 x 1 gb 1333mhz atm.)

So is this PC Power and Cooling a Dead PSU? With that one it never starts the fans or boots. with my POS 600watt OCZ I seem to have no issues.

Also, if I will be using the OCZ For a while, I wonder if anyone knows the best way to keep an eye on Voltage and such from the PSU, as I wouldnt want it to not power well enough.

All information and help greatly appreciated.

Did you connect your other MOBO connector?
The 6 - 8 somewhat one, it is usually above the processor socket.

You mentioned you tried a different PSU, do you have a spare computer laying about to test the PSU that is currently not working?
It might help you in your journey.

yah all Plugs and connectors were properly connected, just dont understand it =/

I guess I could connect it to my Opty rig to test, but I dont even want to bother now..

I am going to return the PSU hopefully, and get something that might be reccomended by OCN for the Asus P6T Deluxe

Heh, all the times I forgot something stupid, been a system builder for 4 years now, and build a dozen systems (worked at a repair shop).

But when I build my own rig, I always feel fuzzy inside when it POSTs.

I mean obviously I must not have done anything wrong here, as I have everything plugged in the same exact way with one PSU to the next..

CPU fan and PWR Fan plugs the same, OCZ Boots, PC Power Does not..
So does anyone know if this PSU Does not like I7 and Asus P6T Deluxe X58 mobo?

I need to send the PSU Back, just dont know if I want the same one, or to switch to a diff brand?
Sounds like a bad PSU, but not a bad company. It's a great company, one of the best, but it does happen sometimes. It "not liking" the P6T/X58 has nothing to do with it. You either got a good one or a bad one. If you have a multimeter, you can probe each connector and see if you're not getting power from one of the connectors. Also check for loose connections/pins. Other than that, I would RMA. Definitely stick with that PSU, though. The PC P&C 750 Quad is a great PSU.
Yah teh PSU itself has a bit too many Drive COnnectors than I would ever really need.

Fact is I probly dont need a 750watt, though its always fun to have ability to SLI later.
