If you all remember not too long ago about my posting of my PSU dying. This would be the 3rd death, with the 2nd death of the PSU less than 4 months ago.
Some people who posted think it's cause my power is "dirty" and that is causing my problems. In my last post, I assumed that my old PC was working, when, in fact it got hit as well. 2 computers, dead, and it's only the PSUs that got hurt.
Newer Build had OCZ StealthXStream II 700w
Old Build: Antec True Blue 480w (might be wrong on the wattage on this one)
Here's my dilemma...
Buy a new PSU since I've had 3 OCZ PSUs die on me within 2 years
- or -
Buy a UPS? (In case it is dirty power...OCZ recommends getting True Sine Wave)
