I had a brain fart a few days ago and on my new rig put in molex power and SATA power on a drive. The circuit board on the drive prompty exploded.
So I got a new drive.
After everything is all set up, about a half hour into operating I put my other three hard drives in. After I put the last HD in and install it in Vista via device manager, everything is fine for about a minute.
Then I see sparks flying out of the PSU! 1 Kw PSU, but I'm not taxing it...
specs:
8800GTS (watercooled)
QX9650 (watercooled)
Easy tune 5 shows system running @ 36 C, CPU running at 14. Not sure if that's possible.
8 gigs of DDR2 ram. Four SATA drives.
Is there any way of testing the PSU or something?
