Current Setup:
350 watt psu
1.2ghz processor Amd Athlon (200fsb)
Gigabyte GA-7VRXP
256mb DDR 2700 mem
Well when i hooked it all up and it booted lovely but then after like a minute i started smelling burneed electronic chips but i dint know what it was. So i started smelling my computer and i figured out it was the powersupply. I opened it up to clean it adn i saw 3 abnormally browned resistors and the pcb was brown too.
So then i got a 250 watt psu and the same thing started happened but i shut it down before it really started to smell.
BTW there was never any smoke and the system was running.
