Sure enough I didn't test out the PSU today.

I tested 2 boards out though with my old Enermax and they worked fine. So I picked a board and installed it on my main bench with the chiller and the Corsair TX850. Well what do you think happened when I hit the power button? It powers for a split second then shuts off same as last night after it quit and I thought it was the board.

So I hook the Enermax to it and try it and of course I get the 4 LEDS of death. I'm going to put another board on the chiller bench with the Enermax and see how that goes.

I'd have to say my fancy shmancy Corsair is junk. I'll test it out later, but I'm not hooking it to any more boards to do it. I'm sure Corsair will replace it, but I'm sure they won't do anything to cover the 3 boards I say were killed by it. I'll try like hell for a upgraded replacement at least.

Not happy.
