Quickest way to verify if a PSU works in another PC?

[InfernoUk]

Hey guys

Im having build issues and need to verify if my PSU is working properly.

Ive done paperclip test and everything powered on (Fans, lights, pump) however im still having issues, i wanted to run it into another PC to verify that PC can boot up correctly with it as then i can confirm the issue is my motherboard.

I wanted to know whats the best and fastest way to verify this without stripping apart another fully working PC.

Can i just plug the large molex mobo plug into another pc and boot it? or is there more to it..

i dont need to see anything, its more to see it all come to life and fans spin up etc, so just the large connector and the smaller 4 pin one?

Rather than risk another PC to a possibly faulty PSU, take the PSU from the other (good) PC and try it in the PC that's giving problems.

yeah that sounds like a decent move, its just messing a round with a lot of cabling!

Is it possible to buy a new PSU and try it and if it wasnt the issue, return that new PSU?
