I've just received my new PSU, and I've heard its better to let it come to room tem before installing is this correct.

ok cheers m8, just read online that its important to let any component warm to room temp first, or is this for certain things

YOu should be fine mate, if you are concerned leave it for an hour or so.

- You'll be fine, mine was freezing, by the time I had it in and cable managed it must have warmed up a little anyway.

I think this stems from the possibilty of moisture condensing on the components while they are cold. I normally think the time it takes to install it is more than enough time. I doubt its gonna be dripping wet.
