MS7185 Repacement PSU

Motherboard is a MS7185 version 1 K8N SLI with a Tagan TG420-U01 power supply which has now failed. Can anyone suggest a replacement power supply. I have looked around but have had no luck finding a psu with the required 4pin VGA connector to the motherboard as well as a 6 pin PCI express connector. Any ideas ?

Also, since you're investing in a new PSU, what are your future plans, especially VGA? You may decide to get a more powerful PSU for some future proofing. The 450 that Bas recommends will do very nicely. Let us know your future plans and we could suggest additional choices.

Dead board or psu

have been running this system for a month now and last week I turned puter on and the fans started off running very slow (not the whine that I am used to 4-80's and 1-120 fans) any way the fans quit working and the comp did not start tried several more time by pushing the on button. the NEW ultra xconnect psu blew a fuse I removed the ps from the case and opened it up and replaced the fuse I then plugged back in the 110v and nothing else I jumpered pin 3 and 4 and blew another fuse rma time Ultra sent me a new psu upon installing this new psu i repaced the asus mother board with a chaintech znf3-250 (couple of months old) unit won't power on ....installed new k8n-neo unit won't power on .....power supply will start to spin fans and then shut down if I disconnet the 4pin wire from the motherboard the psu will start and keep running (the powersupply) help don't know where i went wrong

Disconnect all of the drives, remove all of the memory and pci cards except for only only one stick in the slot nearest to the cpu and one video card. Also disconnect the AC cord before doing a cmos clear.
See if it will start up with this barebones configuration. Then add the other sticks of memory. If it still works, run memtest86 to check the memory. 5 passes without any errors should be enough.
Add the drives one at a time to see if any of them are causing the problem. Once you know that the drives are good, do the same with the PCI cards. Let us know the results.
It would help if we knew what was in the system. Use the info that I provide on my systems as a guide to what we need to know.

If the fuse of the PSU was blown, you can through away the PSU, as it's damaged, be sure of that, the fuse is only there to prevent fire, not to protect the PSU

I have almost an identical setup on a MSI 975x powerup edition and a Antec 550w TP II PSU and getting similar issues... Im getting horrible issues with not being able to cold boot and start up the computer. However after about a few hours of turning the computer off and unpluging from wall, Im then able to boot up after a couple times of resetting the comp. This problem may have started after I flashed back to 7.1 im not sure if its the bios and settings that are causing this horrible boot issue but im not positive (also note this problem only occurs when I try to OC anything over default). Im almost afraid to turn off the computer because of the cold boot issues. Another note way back when I first setup my system I heard a little pop sound and a burning electronic smell... I was worried when this happened... but disregarded when I was able to boot up my system with no problems and OC my CPU to 400FSB... but over time it seems this issue with cold booting was getting worse over time. 3 weeks ago I was able to boot in with 400FSB but would always have minor cold boot issues where I would have to restart the system 2-3 times. Then 1-2 weeks ago the problem got worse where I would have to restart 5-10 times about. Now I cant boot up the system without turning it off resetting cmos and leaving it unpluged for +3 hours. Im not sure if the PSU is the problem because I dont have a replacement PSU that supports this mobo and its power reqs. So the issue is its either the Motherboard or the PSU thats causing the problems im not sure which one it could be... espically since Im able to boot up after going through the long process of turning off the comp and restarting multiple times.

Availability of Inspire P580 PSU in the US?

Hi,
I'll shortly be moving from the UK to the US, and I own a UK-bought Inspire P580 5.1 speaker set. Due to the voltage difference (220/240V vs 110/120V) I'd need a new, US-sourced 110V PSU in order to use the speakers in the US.
Is it possible to buy a compatible PSU from Creative Labs US? Are there any third-party PSUs I could use instead?

If it's an external power supply. The answer is YES!

PSU causing lock ups when gaming? K9A2 Platinum

I am having black screen and occasionally grey screen lock ups when Im playing games. It can happen within 10 minutes or up to an hour. I have to press the power button to restart and dont get any windows errors or blue screen. I have no issues when watching videos or just tooling around. My PSU is a OCZ600MXSP and Im thinking its not up to spec. I have everything running stock. Is it likely my PSU doesnt cut it or is the black/grey screen freeze thing an cpu/gpu overheating issue?

All of my drivers are up to date (I do use driver sweeper as well). It happens pretty much in all games, from BFBC2 and TF2 to some crappy kid game my son plays online (Wizard 101?). Im not sure what the temps are under load but at idle they are good (cant recall what exactly they were but were in the proper temp range). My monitor has just finally died as Im typing this on my laptop (bad caps on power board ) so Ill test the temps while gaming when I can hook it up to my big LCD.
Could the lock up with no blue screen/error report indicate a component overheating?

PSU Query for MSI KT3 Ultra-ARU running 3000xp

Hi There,
Before buying a new Motherboard I was just wondering if the problems I'm getting are related to the PSU which is about 5 years old. I've just upgraded my processor to a Athlon 3000 XP 333 FSB which goes into the MSI KT3 Ultra-ARU (MS-6380E v1.X) motherbaord, which I've upgraded the Bios to version 5.7, I've also upgraded my graphics card to the Leadtek Geforce FX5900XT which also plugs into the PSU. When setting my fsb to 166 my PC either won't boot or when I try to run say 3DMark it just freezes, but when I set my FSB to 133 it works fine. I was wondering if it is trying to draw too much power from the CPU.
I don't really know how to write the PSU details down correctly so I've just copied everything from the unit.

PSU and Video card upgrade for HP e9280t

Hello, I wanted to upgrade my PSU and video card. The PSU I would like to get is the SeaSonic S12II 620 Bronze 620W (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817151096&Tpk=17-151-096) but I wasn't sure if my computer could handle and hold the PSU. The video card I would like to get is the EVGA 01G-P3-1561-AR GeForce GTX 560 Ti (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814130604) but im not sure if my computer can handle this too. I have a HP Pavilion Elite e9280t CTO Desktop PC (http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/product?cc=us&lc=en&dlc=en&product=4066665) can someone please tell me if I can upgrade to the PSU and Video card?

Stuart, welcome to the forum.
The truth is, any video card that will run properly with the 300W PSU in the computer, will not be much better than the integrated video. Most newer mid-level cards require a PSU with a minimum of 400W watts. I have searched for other members many times without any luck. If you want to upgrade the PSU, it will give you far more options.

Video Card and PSU upgrade for HP pavilion p6310y?

Hello,
I am a mild gamer and I would like to upgrade my video card so I could play games like minecraft and maplestory without my frame rate dropping every 5-10 min. When this happens it sounds like the fan in my computer is working really hard and the game is almost unplayable. I also play a few games from steam such as Gmod and Borderlands, however the games that seem less graphic intensive give me more problems.
Should I and am I able to upgrade the video card and psu for this HP pavilion p6310y? or possibly get a better card for these game without upgrading psu?
Processor is Quade core AMD Athlon II X4 630 / 2.8 GHz

Any help would be much appreciated!

Hi,
Yuo might try updating the video driver from the NVIDIA web site.
Your PC has a 300 watt power supply. If you don't need DirectX 11 (used for better detail in newer games), then the NVIDIA GT 240 1GB or 512 MB DDR5 is about tops for a 300 watt power supply.

Another video card/PSU upgrade for HP Pavilion p6565uk

Hi there
I want to upgrade from the basic Nvidia card and 300W psu provided with my HP Pavilion P6565UK, purchased a few months ago.
I am looking at either a Corsair CX 600W or an Antec HCG-750W, I am not sure if there is a difference, and an EVGA Nvidia superclocked GTX550Ti card.
I am however really not technically minded and I am not sure how to go about making sure that these products will be suitable before I purchase them.
I have 3D gaming in mind (I have a 120hz screen) as I am a Warcraft player.
Hope someone can help point me in the right direction or hold my hand as I am hopeless with stuff like this!

Hi,
You might have issues getting the Antec HCG-750W to fit. Do some measuring and see it will fit, particularly the distance between the power supply and the optical drive. I have see where PSUs of 750 and greater have failed to work in some HP PC's.
Go with the Corsair CX600 or the CX500.
I noticed that EVGA has lowered the PSU requirements for some video cards. Look at this information for the 550 TI superclocked.

What PSU should i buy?

Hey, i have an important question. I have seen a bunch of posts here on the forum about lack of juice out of PSU's with certain hardware configs....
I think i have the same problems here, flickering textures in games, when playing games they just quit and im back in windows.... and even sometimes it just hangs.... this is only when playing games or 3D rendering in 3D studio max.
Here are my system specs.

3com Network card 10/100
Microsoft optical mouse
PSU 300w
Windows XP Professional Corp. (NL + SP1)
DirectX 9.0
nVidia 41.09 drivers for WinXP
I think that my PSU is not good (correct me if im wrong), what PSU should i buy with my specs? please give me a brand and typenumber...

Is there any way to check if the power supply is definetly causing problems - I just bought am G4MX440 and after installing it (was using 32meg TNT2), game graphics are all screwey
TO-AOT (blank screen)
Q3 (all i get in the menus is the firey surround 'quake 3')
GTA3 ('bout a hundred tiled menu windows)
After reading many of the posts I assumed it was my power supply, went back to where i bought it (both the pc and the card) to upgrade nah it's the card bring it back.

300W psu
3.3 - 14A | 160W combined
5 - 30A |
12 - 15A
These guys are selling all their P4 packages with various G4 and other card with 300W power supplies without issue (or so they say)
so any way to check for sure, will the rails dip significantly? I be grateful for any suggestions caus if i take it back you know it will sit on a shelf for a a few days b4 they get around to it - and i'm itching to try it out....

MSI 6600 diamond PCI-E/ 3DMARK05 = 739/ PSU Problem?

This is my first post, so forgive me if it's not OK.
I have an MSI NX6600 VTD128E diamond. I am getting the Nvidia Sentinal warning approx. 75% of the time. I just installed an Enermax EG465P-VE FMA. I'm not sure if the specs will show up in my profile, so they are 3.3v - 35A, 5v - 35A, 12v - 33A. From all the reading I have done I thought this would solve my problem, but it did not. My original PSU was a 300W Hipro with dual 12v rails @ 18A each that came with my computer, and I got the warning everytime I turned it on, which is why I switched for the new one.
These cards get there power from the PCI-E slot on the motherboard with no option for an extra power connector. At this point I don't know if I need a new PSU with dual 12v rails, or if there is something else causing the problem. From reviews of other 6600 cards I think my 3DMARK05 numbers should be between 2600-3200? Any thoughts or suggestions would be very appreciated.

Thanks for the reply blazing storm.
I have had 1 or 2 restarts trying beta drivers, 71.81 and MSI's 71.22 caused a strange xp screen saying please wait, but it never booted up. Far cry wouldn't load with one of them. This is the only game I'm playing right now and it actually runs pretty good with settings on High. My clock speeds were at 400/800 after the Sentinal warning so I'm not sure what it is doing, but my marks definatly suggest something is wrong. Everything runs ok with the 66.93, which I used before the beta's and I am using them now.I didn't get the warning when I started my Comp this time so I think I will try 3DMARK05 again just to see if there are any changes.
From what I understand about Memtest (very little) I need a floppy drive, but I don't have one. Am I correct or is there another way to use the program? Anybody else have some ideas? Please.
PS- could someone explain the differences between ATX12V, ATX V1.0, V1.3, V2.0, V2.3? etc. Do the new PCI-E boards need a specific version? Thanks.

IMac Power supply PSU failure due to UPS type

I am posting this to aid anyone else who has suffered a similar issue as it took me some time to rectify and it was difficult to find evidence of proof.
Preamble:
My late 2012 27" iMac began powereing off, sometimes after a few days sometimes after 20 minutes. It gradually got worse until it would not power on at all.
I had tried all possible fixes I could including - reset SMC and NVRAM, reinstalling Mavericks, running from an external HDD with a cloned OS, running with a fresh Mavericks install on a USB stick.
Also ran Apple Hardware tests and used Micromat Techtool 7 with no problems apparent.
Also tried running when moved from my desk and plugged into a different socket in the house (this point is especially relevant).
Repair attempts:
Apple (via Amsys) changed the logic board. This worked for a day then the fault reoccurred. Apple (Apple store this time, Amsys scratched the aluminium housing previously so I avoided them) then changed the PSU.
This fixed the fault and the iMac ran with no problem (apart from audio missing - another discussion perhaps!), BUT when I moved the iMac back to its original position on my desk (having been plugged in the aforementioned other socket) it would not power on again. I then realised it was the UPS and iMac were not playing nicely. If I plugged the iMac into the UPS when the UPS was already powered on, the iMac would work until the next random power down. I have used the UPS with everything else including the iMac for over a year so didn't suspect it. However, I do have the occasional brownout (power dip) and power cut so it has been utilised for the iMac a handful of times without issue.
Solution:
I have now researched and concluded the iMac PSU (at least the Energy Star 5.0 onwards compliant ones, not sure about older iMacs) need a Pure Sine Wave UPS otherwise the PSU may be damaged as mine was. It may not happen until the UPS is called upon either. In fact any active PFC PSU could be affected. I could not find this out from Apple or APC (my UPS manufacturer), only with some reasearch and my own knowledge of electrics. It seems that not all iMacs are as sensitive or for other reasons this fault will not occur with a similar set-up to mine, but I am now confident that this was the cause. Please note I do not yet have my own Pure Sine Wave UPS and I am now running without one for the time being until I buy a Cyberpower CP1300EPFCLCD or similar.

Welcome, Cubber;
yes, there are some people complaining here about power supplies -
I'd contact Apple and tell them your problem. Being hit twice by the same failure is not nice. Usually they cooperate - have a look at just this post her:

Which type of psu for K8d Master3 FS - please help !!!

Hello community,
unfortunately we are unable to get a K8D Matser3 FS running.
We excluded problems in CPU or memory so we think the problem is the power supply.
In the manual of the board in the pin-assignment on pin20 there is written "3VSB". Does that mean +3V standby ???
We tested two different psu, a Levicom Blackpower 450W 24+8 EPS (no cable on Pin20) and a Bequiet P5 520W EPS 24+8 (white cable -5V on pin20)
without any success. The CPUs stay cool, the CPU fan is running and there is nothing to hear or see.
The german support couldn´t help. They said that all EPS power supplys should work fine, that was all they could say.
What we need is an information about tested psu with type and manufacturer so we can compare the pin-assignment.
Please help us. This is urgent.
THX from Germany
