Hey..
I bought my PC few weeks ago:
**************************************************
CPU model and rated speed:-i7 965 Extreme 3.2
Memory: 12GB (6x2GB OCZ 1600Mhz @ 1066Mhz default).
Motherboard and revision:-EX58-Extreme rev.1
Video card:- Two 4870X2
Operating System:-Vista x64
Power supply:-
1st: COOLMAX GreenPower 950Watt
2nd: COOLMAX GreenPower 1200Watt
3rd: Thermaltake Tough Power 1500W
4th (Currently): Gigabyte ODIN Pro 1200W
**************************************************
As you see I had problems with many PSUs. The first was not enough for 2 4870X2. The second was smelly. They third has strange problem (when turning power off it will not work except after 10-15 mins?!).
And the smell problem appeared with this new PSU also!!
As if something burning but no smoke..
The first time I plugged it in I left it at the highest load with GTA IV game for 23 Hours.
When I return to the PC room it was working perfectly (and still) but here was a high burning smell..
Is it normal as the sweet smell of a new car or just a warning before everything blow up?
