Corsair AX860i cutting out?

[pf1235]

Hey guys, I have made my new build. I have an asrock motherboard and a corsair ax860i PSU. When I flick the switch of my PSU and press the on button, it turn on for a couple of seconds then turns off. That happens twice. Then it restarts and goes for about a minuet then shuts off. I don't have an OS yet. Have I got a faulty PSU?

Please help. pf.

pf look at the bios lable on the mb. if it low you could be missing cpu code or ram code. most time it ram code. when this happens at boot the motherboard cant set the ram speed up right and turns on and off till it can. when it does the cmos bios screen should show up. (ON SOME new builds the onboard video is the main port). if you get no video pull your gpu and one ram stick and see if the mb post fine. if it does update the bios and then put the other ram and video card back in.
on motherboard make sure there on the brass standoffs and the 8 pin power on the edge of the mb is plugged in.

Reseat the RAMs, boot again
Using only 1 stick of RAM and 1 storage device, boot again
Using only 1 stick of RAM and 1 storage device and onboard graphics, boot again

When I turn it on, nothing comes up on screen. Which means to me that it is something to do with BIOS. I havn't tried any of the suggestions yet, but I am going to.

Fixed the issue a while back, just gonna say. The unit was faulty, it caught fire on start and I got warranty replacement.
