Hi, I purchased an ahanix silenx 350 psu from newegg for 45 bucks and ive been running it for almost a week and there is this smell that has decreased slowly over time. The smell is like that of burnt electronics (i know it well as a CS major). While its quite silent, the smell seems pretty bad and cant be good for my health. Im interested in anyones experiences with one of these psus and any advice would be welcomed. btw its still RMAable, if i should rma should i just ask for a new one or take my money else where?
thanks alot,
jmat

That smell is actually very dangerous to your health.
Specifically it causes a reaction in the brain chemistry resulting in the victim becoming compulsively obsessed with minimizing every little sound they encounter, most especially those sounds closely associated with computing devices.
However, by the time you notice it, it's already too late. Way, way too late.

Anyway, it's very dangerous to your wealth too...
