Hey guys this is the third PSU I have gone through. I started out with a 550w PSU and after about a year it blew so i decided to replace it. So I bought a 750w PSU, hooked it up in my kitchen, worked great but when I hooked it up in my room on the surge protector, pop!
So I went to go return it for another and used it for like 2 weeks, pop!
But this time I was connected directly to the outlet in my room, pop!.
I just don't understand. I did however notice that when my central AC kicks in a surge goes through my house my power dims out a bit. I calculated my hardware power usage with a calculator and its saying my minimum and maximum here:
Minimum PSU Wattage: 536 W
Recommended
PSU Wattage: * 586 W
I have an Sli board and two(2) 9800 GT's with an AMD 64 X2 5400+ 2800 MHz AM2
2GB Kingston HyperX 2.4 Cas Latency
1 DVD/RW
5 LED 180MM Fans
Could it be something in my house that is making it pop and become dead. I know it cant be wires touching my case, because my case is acrylic. Any suggestions?
