I try to power my CX430 first i put my Galaxy GTX 650 1gb GC in the dell studio 540 and then i put my old video card in still didn't boot up could this mean a bad psu i got.

I was told CX430 was to low for my pc or could be bad psu and how do i get Consair to send me a new one?
 
Solution


Then it looks like you have a faulty PSU, because a 430W PSU should be able to handle those specs. Ask Corsair for a replacement.

What CPU are you using? If you are using a low wattage CPU such as the i3 3220, then a 430W PSU should be enough. That would mean it was faulty. Tell me what cpu you have.
