Question / Issue
How do I test my power supply?
Answer / Solution
Please read below or watch the video HERE.
In order to test your EVGA power supply, the
first thing you will want to try is known as the
jumper test (aka the PSU paper-clip test, jump
starting, etc.) as this will allow us to verify the
device's functionality without needing it to be
connected to any other components from your
system. This process is relatively safe as it
does not deal with dangerous voltages, and
there should be no need for direct contact with live wires, however please be sure to take any
precautions necessary to prevent issues from occurring.
This test can help identify the following issues:
Internal short circuits
Failed components
Power connected to PSU
What this test cannot identify:
Voltage fluctuations
Overheating
Power Output (failing power rails)
Issues with capacity
To perform the jumper test:
1. Turn the rocker switch
2. If you have the
(shown right).
Otherwise use a bare metal paperclip, or a wire, to connect the green pin (PS_ON)
on the back of the PSU to the off position ("O" pressed in)
EVGA Detection Tool , attach it to the end of the 24 pin connector
