Question Seasonic Focus GX-850 Appears to be Dead on Arrival

[bioject]

I haven't even installed the PSU yet. All I did was plug it into the wall like the instructions said and the thing won't turn on. I've tried multiple outlets and still get the same result. Any thoughts on something I am doing wrong or maybe I am just getting unlucky with these PSUs?

How did you try to turn it on?

Are you bringing the psu on pin to ground in order to tell the psu to turn on?

I just realized I didn't do that. I did that and it turns on.

Then it's probably fine. Plug into pc and test.
