how to use power supply tester

[@noloferratus]

That was very helpful thanks! I found out my power supply was fine and instead a cat peed inside and shorted out my motherboard.

[@tunkunrunk]

my story is different , I accidentally dropped my fork inside my computer , it shorted my motherboard

[@mofo78536]

Sounds like your cat is defective, get it replaced under warranty

[@mvee8089]

How does a cat get access to your motherboard 😭

[@Bou89]

What about the PCI-e cable? can should it be connected with the 8-pin CPU?

[@johnnnnnnnnnn17]

is there a reason you didnt connect the pcie connectors?

[@seollenda]

Everything is fine except the PG.. The value its reading is 120ms and its flashing. What does this mean?

[@dabbzgaming]

Did you ever find out? My PC won't boot and my PSU is giving 130ms on pg and flashing like yours

[@seollenda]

@@dabbzgaming I just bought the same one off Amazon then returned it with the faulty unit lol

[@1partgeek]

@@dabbzgaming Same here, all stats are good except for PG showing 130ms and flashing and beeping! :(

[@macporteiro]

I believe it's a good value. I've read PG is the value for the PSU to deliver enough power to the CPU, which also allows for sleeping state. Lower than 100 means it's too quick for the CPU, higher than 500 means the computer will fail before it reaches full current. But is it flashing with the 6pin/8pin cable on the other side? If so, the manual says there's an issue with the PSU. If it's flashing without any other cables than the 24pin, you need to connect something else. I get 120ms in my corsair 850 as well. And according to the tests, by elimination I believe my MSI x570 wifi tomahawk has betrayed me after 2 years of light work...

My -12V is showing 11.7 V is that normal ?

[@patelshome806]

Same question

[@macporteiro]

yes. within range till 10.5

[@kanyeeastlolz]

what if the PG value is in range and the tester constantly beeps showing the PG value turning off and on? What's the issue then?

[@macporteiro]

Did you connect the 6pin or 8pin cable as well? If you did and it's flickering, the manual says there's a failing PSU. If you did and there's no flicker but beeps.... I don't know. Mine was beeping because I hadn't connected the 6pin nor 8pin cable on the other side, showing LL as well. Once connected, all good.

*How I check PSU watt?*

[@MrKOREA7]

PCIE connector does not work with this Power Supply Tester; Not mine anyway

[@1776_Reasons]

My P.G. shows 100 but it's blinking/beeping and everything else is in normal range. Does that still mean my PSU is bad?

[@macporteiro]

Have you connected the second cable? like CPU or PCI-e cable?

[@1776_Reasons]

@macporteiro yes. I wasn't able to get the computer to turn on with this psu but it did turn on with another one. I just assumed the psu was bad.

[@uzkniso88]

I've checked a psu and everything pass, but when PSU connected to any PC it does not work. PSU spins for a second and turns off. Seems like this tester is not 100% accurate

[@ΑΠΟΣΤΟΛΟΣΤΖΙΤΖΟΥΔΗΣ]

Motherboard is dead

[@PierreRees]

Or maybe graphics card. I had a gtx970 that was tripping my PSU. Soon as I took the card out. It worked fine

[@sham1234567891]

Great stuff! I checked a psu and all voltages are shown as on your screen. But only 2 leds are on and the 3.3volt les is off. Could you please give me an opinion? Thanks and regards.

[@KaleemNoonari]

3.3v only lights up on sata cable not molex or any other as he have said that in video.

[@sankarkripakaran3239]

Purchase link... Power supply

[@joemarapuan2783]

Saan po nakakabili ng PSU TESTER? Pwede po makahingi ng link. Thanks!

[@bobbrock4221]

Nice video. Be better without the music, it's distracting.

[@TimSturgill-r5f]

Very helpful

[@johnluiegonzaga1501]

useful video.. thank you for sharing your knowledge

[@jakkamadhu4335]

Wow

[@georgepanganiban6421]

LL = Low Level Voltage.

[@Medieva1]

Hi, When I only connect my 24 pin connector to the tester, I get the LL. But once I also plug in the cpu or vga cable it goes away. what does that mean??

[@CougarCat21]

What about H-H? What does it mean? My 5VSB has H-H.
