Question: CORSAIR RMx Shift Series RM1200x
I own a Corsair RMx Shift Series RM1200x PSU, which I installed into an ASRock Z97 Extreme Mobo. It worked immediately at first, but when I restarted the system later, it would power on but fail to connect to the monitor. I tried several troubleshooting steps—reconnecting cables, moving RAM, swapping out cables and outlets—but nothing resolved the issue. I reached out to Corsair, who suggested a "paperclip" test and confirmed it was faulty. They provided a PSU tester and followed their instructions, which indicated the original PSU was defective. Now the new PSU is also causing the same boot problem. What am I missing? Is there something Corsair is missing? Any advice would really help prevent more trouble. Thanks.
Tested both onboard and GPU connections. Utilized HDMI and VGA cables for both setups.
The new shift includes type 5 cables, not just those that came with the PSU.
