Im on the verge of returning a faulty psu to ocers, but wanted some opinions... My concern is that they wont be able to replicate the fault I am having...
I bought a new setup form them in May, i920 Bundle and Asus 4890.. the system seemed to work well, except that I noticed when the system went into sleep, that if I tried to wake it, all the fans would spin on full, including gfx, and not boot. Usually the fans will all spin on full fur about 2 seconds, then go slow, and system would boot.
This problem started to happen more frequently, and then nearly everytime I turned on the PC, all fans would spin up on full, but pc would not boot, no post, no monitor, nothing.. I could try to boot the pc several times with no joy, and only occaionally would it actually boot...
During one of these boot failure sessions, I swapped PSU's and system booted fine.. so I left the other psu in for a week or so, and it displayed non of the behaviour I had been experiencing.. I thne stuch the BeQuiet back in, and within a couple of days, the problem started again.. I could not boot my pc up at all.. same behaviour, all fans would spin, all lights on the motherboard.. Put other psu back in, and pc worked fine...
Over the course of a month, everytime I use the BeQuiet, within a couple of days, the pc would become unusable, and when I used the other psu, it works fine...
Im a bit worried OCers wont be able to replicate the same fault.. Its costing me £15 to send the psu back, and Ive asked for a refund as item is less than 6 months old...
