I just got that wonderful burning electronics smell:ugh:
7 out of 9 fans were no longer running .
Power supply got very hot and everything came to a stop except the smell.:sick:
Running on temporary power (old power supply).

I know how that feels... Just sent off my 650Watt fancy supply in my speed machine. None of my 8 fans were running. But no smell of smoke. No gaming until the replacement (under warranty) gets in.

I thought i would save some money and buy a cheaper power supply off of Newegg. Ya that was a mistake, i was installing windows on a new machine i just built for myself, the computer hadnt even been on for 5 minutes and sparks start shooting out the back and i get the burnt electronics smell. It ends up frying my MBD, so i had to buy a new one of those, and i bought a nicer Thermaltake power supply.
