[QUOTE="Deleted, post: 372118, member: 29753"] To replace an Enermax PSU which blew & took out my motherboard, I bought the best PSU I could find - a Seasonic Platinum 860W. I thought it would last me for 10 years! It was very expensive. That was January 2013. This morning it failed. Pop! My computer cut out, I was able to get it running again, then pop.. it failed again. I diagnosed motherboard or power supply but had to go out working for the day before I could test it. Meanwhile my wife kindly bought a second hand motherboard of exactly the same model so that I had something spare. Back home tonight, I tried a Corsair unit I had in stock & everything is running. I sent an email to Seasonic & got a reply within minutes asking for info, I sent that back with a scan of the invoice & I've just got the RMA number back. That's about the quickest RMA I've ever seen! Nice, but I'd have preferred it not to fail in the first place. [/QUOTE]
