System sometimes doesn't start from psu

[Salmonidae]

Hey all,

I have installed my water cooling loop and filled etc and am now trying to bleed the loop. However there is an issue in when I turn the psu off and on sometimes nothing in the pc powers up and I have to leave it for a while before it works again. Any ideas?

Thanks in advance

now everything is connected to mobo again power button works fine.... are you sure the only answer its its dying? It is a relatively new corsair HX850...

check all you connections.
check all wires are not dodgy

make sure all components are firmly in place

if all else fails - re-build

if that fails, borrow someone else's PSU to test it
if it turns out to be the PSU, just RMA it

mmmm, usually, when one "bleeds" the system, we are not plugging the 24-pin PSU
connector into the motherboard. we generally use a jumper, jumper block, or toggle
to bump or bleed a system. so if a leak is detected, the system isnt under full power.
correct the leak and press on..
sounds like your not having a solid connection on the jumper.
