SkyRyder Posted April 30, 2011 Share Posted April 30, 2011 Purchased AX850 PSU from Newegg on 4/20/2011; worked great for the week and ½ that it functioned. Unit sits on 15 amp dedicated breaker; kicked the breaker and scared the hell out of me, never seen that kind of thing happen before! No smoke or burn smell from the PSU. Paperclip test confirms unit to be deader than a door nail! Good thing I still had my HX750, put it back in and everything came back up. Luckily it didn’t damage the motherboard, or any of the other components, as far as I can tell. Looking for power efficiency in a PSU, I grabbed the Newegg offer. Thinking I had a winner, unfortunately, I had cut and removed the product code from the box, required for rebate, the day before, so I can’t send it back to Newegg. This is a simple setup for rendering and image work; no extreme over clocking! I’ve posted request for RMA. I guess this brick will cost an arm and leg to send back!?

Sorry, didn't see this, shipping fee assist, until after RMA #1226671 had shipped. So, I've already eaten the $32.42 Priority Mail, Insured. :mad: Well, there goes the Newegg Promo along with Corsair's Rebate! BTW...PSU shows to have been delivered to Corsair on: 05/04, but I never did receive any email confirmation from Corsair. Case ID: 2026083 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
