Doug that has to be a serious allergy. Burning circuits are one of the most acrid and stinging of smells.

Must be, the wife opened all the windows and sprayed febreze around. She described it pretty much the way you just said it. And Layback is right, the cats are acting funny. And she just made me put the bad psu out in the garage.
Fry's won't take it back they are jerks when it comes to this you are better off going to Corsair like I did they only give you 15 days
You Video card isn't gone you got it in time now if everything shut down out of nowhere and that happened cause to be worried most likely the capacitor was old and it just happened that at the time the Videocard was the most power hungry
Thanks Solar, the computer was idle, I came back from the store and tapped the keyboard and mouse to bring the monitor up, then came the smoke. The psu is only four months old
See if Corsair will do cross ship. You give them a credit card and they ship the new one and you have 30 days to return the bad one and if not they charge your card. Saves a lot of time.

I did get the RMA in last night. I was confused on the lot number(google fu said number next to serial number) and it did not work. Googled and found a number. I received an email back stating my RMA was in and gave me a ticket number. It said I will be contacted, so I will then verify I have the right lot number.
