The motherboard doesn't function properly with any power source except the one that passes the paper clip test.

Hey everyone, I'm trying a 600w toughpower gx2 but it won't work when connected to a motherboard. I noticed something odd during the paper clip test—plugging a PCIe cable into an old motherboard's 24-pin socket makes it turn on, but when I try to connect the 24-pin socket into an old board, it won't work.
