It was a murder-suicide. PSU killed itself, took CPU with him. What a shame too as this chip did 3.65Ghz with 1.65v and -5C load temps. I think I may cry. In fact, everybody cry for me.

These powersupplies keep on dying on people
PCP&C are no longer on my list, Hipro5's "research" revelead a pretty screwed up mechanism in them too. Well, I guess OCZ and Zippy stay..
In short, both AMD and NVIDIA discovered that their next-generation graphics cards are superior to each others' last-generation graphics cards.

your PC & C 510 SLi died and fried out your CPU with it in the process... they are usually pretty top notch... I just $hit canned a Hiper type-R 580 SLI power supply because my system kept restarting for no aparent reason. It got great reviews from like 30 tech sites but terrible from like 4 or 5 and I guess it all depends on the unit you got but im going with a Seasonic S12-600 anyway not going to chance it again even thought the Hiper was the best looking PSU i ever had. oh well
any warranty on that FX-57
warranty, yes, I will send in for RMA but there is no way I will get a 0516 back...![]()
Man sorry to hear that, now I'm scared to death that my PC P&C will kill my FX-57, the fan sure has been getting loud lately....
;_;
for you
hopefully my OCZ PSU stays good for a good long while

Maybe get in contact with pcp&c and let them search for the error?
That might help all of us.
I think they are interested in it when you tell them. You're not a nobody and they have a much better support than DFI.

I really like my Enermax 660... It's a monster too, about 1 1/2 inches longer than the PCP&C 510, and a lot heavier (especially considering the Enermax case is Aluminum vs. PCP&C that is metal).
If you need higher end for cheap, you may want to try this... runs my new rig great! (see sig).

Hehehe....The words FREECABLEGUY and CHEAP will never be found in the same sentence...LOL.....Originally Posted by phadeout
I have both enermax 660W (which not work with RDX200) and Zippy 700W that wont work with SLI-D jumpered 4V dimm. Its working ok with RDX though, but it kinda weird to run 3.6Vdimm w/out changing any jumper.
Same faith...RIP
