Frequently Asked Questions - C550 NZXT

How to install the NZXT C550 power supply?

Install the power supply into the case using the provided screws. Then connect the ATX 20+4 pin connector to the motherboard, the CPU 4+4 pin connectors, the PCIe connectors for the graphics card, then the SATA and peripheral cables. Finally, connect the AC power cable and turn on.

What cables are provided with the NZXT C550?

The NZXT C550 comes with one ATX 20+4 pin power cable, two CPU 4+4 pin cables, PCIe cables, SATA cables, and peripheral cables. See the manual for the exact configuration.

Is the NZXT C550 power supply modular?

The NZXT C550 is not fully modular. Some main cables are fixed, but there may be modular connectors for peripherals. Check the manual for details.

What to do if my PC does not turn on after installation?

First check that all cables are properly connected and that the power supply switch is set to 'I'. Ensure the AC power cable is firmly connected. If the problem persists, contact NZXT support at [e-mail].

Can I use the NZXT C550 power supply in a country with a different voltage?

Yes, the power supply accepts an input voltage of 100-240 V and a frequency of 50-60 Hz, making it compatible with most countries. Just use the appropriate power cable.

How to clean the NZXT C550 power supply?

Unplug the power supply and use a dry cloth or soft brush to clean the ventilation grilles. Never open the case or use any liquid.

Is the NZXT C550 power supply quiet?

Yes, the 120 mm FDB bearing fan is designed to be quiet, with noise less than 44 dBA. The fan only spins when there is sufficient load, reducing noise at low loads.

What is the warranty on the NZXT C550?

The warranty is provided by NZXT. In case of issues, contact [e-mail] with your proof of purchase. Spare parts can be ordered at support.nzxt.com.

Can I replace the power supply fan?

No, the fan is not user-replaceable. Opening the power supply voids the warranty and poses risk of electric shock. Any repairs should be done by a professional.

What does the 80 PLUS Bronze certification mean?

The 80 PLUS Bronze certification guarantees at least 82% efficiency at 20% and 100% load, and 85% at 50% load. This means less energy waste and better efficiency compared to non-certified models.

Our warranty does not cover the following:

• any product or serial number/warranty sticker modification applied without permission from NZXT;
• any damage that is not a manufacturing defect;
• damage, deterioration or malfunction resulting from: accident, abuse, misuse, neglect, fire, water, lightning, or other acts of nature, unauthorized product modification or failure to follow instructions included with the product;

NZXT's sole obligation and liability under this warranty is limited to the repair or replacement of a defective product with either a new or refurbished product with a similar function that is equal or greater in value at our option. NZXT shall not, in any event, be liable for any incidental or consequential damage, including but not limited to damages resulting from interruption of service and loss of data, business, or for liability in tort relating to this product or resulting from its use or possession.

VII. HOW TO OBTAIN A WARRANTY SERVICE FROM NZXT

To receive a warranty service for your product when purchased directly from NZXT, you must submit a request via the NZXT Support site outlining the problem. If a technician deems the product defective or requiring testing, you will be required to provide a copy of your proof of purchase, which will enable you to submit a Return Merchandise Authorization "RMA" request.

Once approved, you'll receive an RMA number, upon which you will be asked to ship the defective item back to NZXT with the RMA number clearly marked or labelled on the package. NZXT recommends that appropriate measures are taken to safeguard the product from damage during shipping.

VIII. APPLICABLE LAW AND ADDITIONAL LEGAL RIGHTS FOR CONSUMERS

This warranty gives you specific legal rights. These conditions are governed and construed in accordance with the laws of California (with exception of its conflict of law provisions), and the application of the United Nations Convention of Contracts for the International Sale of Goods is expressly excluded. The non-exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of California is agreed, which means that you may bring a claim to enforce your consumer protection rights in connection with this Global Warranty in the country which you have your habitual residence where you may have additional rights. These rights may vary.

For original consumers who are covered by consumer protection laws or regulations in their country, state, or province of purchase or, if different, their country, state, or province of residence, the benefits conferred by this warranty are in addition to all rights and remedies conveyed by such consumer protection laws and regulations. To the extent that liability under such consumer laws can be limited, NZXT's liability is limited, and its sole option, to repair or replacement, either new or refurbished, with a similar function that is equal or greater in value depending on supply.

In the United Kingdom:

• For NZXT products sold to customers in the UK, during the expected lifespan of your product your legal rights entitle you to the following:

Up to 30 days: if your goods are faulty, then you can get an immediate refund.

Up to six months: if your goods can't be repaired or replaced, then you're entitled to a full refund, in most cases.

Up to six years: if your goods do not last a reasonable length of time you may be entitled to some money back.

• If the person seeking to rely on the guarantee is not the original consumer, the NZXT Warranty will cover the product in relation to that person provided that they are able to provide proof of the transfer of the benefit of the guarantee from the original consumer.
• The implied warranties under the Consumer Rights Act 2015 says that your goods must be as described, fit for all purposes for which such goods are usually supplied, and of satisfactory quality.

In the EU:

• If you are a consumer and have your habitual residence in the EU, you additionally enjoy the protection afforded to you by provisions that cannot be derogated from by agreement by virtue of the law where you have your habitual residence.
