jack568923 Posted August 18, 2017 Share Posted August 18, 2017 Sorry for my bad english,but I'll try to explain my problem. Early July I bought my first corsair PSU(RM750x),and when the PSU is in higher load,distribute heating plastic smell from the shell and the vent of PSU. I'm worried about this.So I contected the seller and changed the same and new PSU .Unfortunately it also distribute heating plastic smell in higher load. So I applied for RMA by the end of July.After RMA,I got a new RM750x.But sadly,same problem. Does the part of this series PSU use any materials that cause this problem?

Corsair Employee jonnyguru Posted August 18, 2017 Corsair Employee Share Posted August 18, 2017 It's just the solder flux. You can RMA that PSU a dozen times and still have the smell... Whenever the unit hits a certain temperature, it's going to have a smell. Eventually, it will "burn off"... that is, if you are willing to wait a bit and not freak out and exchange the PSU everytime you smell something. :D: Wish you would've posted the first time you experienced it. Could've saved you a lot of hassle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
