[queamin]

I had a qtec a few years ago and changed it after reading some forums but was lucky it never caught fire got a enermax 480 now,had it a while and no problems with it.
I always get a laugh when i see qtek in a forums and people reactions.

the qtec 650w has 24a rating (which is over-rated) on the 12v rail. same as my enermax 550w unit (which has to be underrated, otherwise thats shocking).

even my 460w x-pro has 30a on the 12v rail.

Thanks for all the help guys.

A mate just gave me a 400w Zalman he had knocking around and it seems to have done the trick. The graphical glitches are gone and everything is running fine.

Now I will spend my evening visualising the salesman's face tomorrow as I reunite him with the Qtec PSU he sold me. Rectally.

Some salesmen haven't a clue really.

Cyber-Mav's stated in another thread he got his PSU about six years ago, so that will be why lol.

By the way, what brand/model was your previous PSU that blew up?

More than likely a single fan Cheiftec rebranded by the company he bought it from. I had the same one from the same place a few years ago. Nothing flashy but it was always reliable for me.
