Corsair AX860 PSU
This started a few weeks ago with my PC failing to power on from a cold boot, motherboard LED's et al functioning but it wouldn't even attempt to POST. So after checking every single cable, reseating everything, double checking everything I could find nothing wrong whatsoever. Then in a lazy attempt to flick with PSU power switch on I kind of put it in a neutral position before if flicked back to on and the bloody PC started, past POST straight to windows, everything running fine.
So I powered it down again and attempted to start it normally, wouldn't power on until I replicated the same messing with the PSU switch as earlier. Is this symptomatic of a faulty PSU or could something else MOBO related be causing it? The entire build is less than a year old (OCUK custom built) and I don't think I've experienced an issue like this ever before. Sadly I don't have PSU of similar power/quality to test it against so I'm at a loss.
