I just got a new Gigabyte 7VKML motherboard with case/psu and assembled it all. When I hit the power switch, I got a burning smell from the psu. I thought is was just doa, so I just took the one out of my main machine to check that the rest of the components worked ok. I got the same burning smells from my psu as well.
DAMN!!
I removed all the components from the pc so all I had was the case, power supply, motherboard, and the connector that wroks the power switch. I put my last psu in and fired it up. I got the same burning smells
So, can a faulty motherboard kill a psu??
BTW: All these psus were AMD certified 300W.
Cheers
