Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues with your Lian Li EDGE1000W power supply, consider the following steps:
- No Power: Ensure the power cable is securely connected to both the PSU and the wall outlet. Check the power switch on the PSU is in the 'On' position. Verify all modular cables are correctly seated in the PSU and connected to components.
- System Instability/Crashes: This could indicate insufficient power or a faulty component. Ensure your system's total power draw does not exceed the PSU's capacity. Check all power connections, especially to the motherboard and graphics card.
- Fan Noise: While designed for low noise, excessive fan noise might indicate dust buildup. Refer to the Maintenance section for cleaning the dust filter. If the fan is constantly running at high RPM under low load, ensure 0 RPM mode is enabled (if applicable and desired).
- USB/Fan Hub Issues: If the hub is not functioning, ensure it is properly connected to the PSU or receiving power via a PCIe 8-pin cable. Check the USB signal cable connection to the motherboard.
