    Anyone ever order a retail 920 and get...

    I concur. Granted Newegg would have been better off not using the term "demo unit" to describe the obvious "fake" cpu. However in the end it certainly appears that they are taking care of all affected customers.

    550w enough for a Q6600?

    http://www.hardforum.com/showthread.php?t=1111486 1) No UL # - check 2) 600W peak w/ 30A combined - check 3) Massive +5V rail - check 4) SLI certified? doubtful I'm the SuperFlower will work, but I wouldn't trust that old inefficient dinosaur in my rig. ;)

    PSU fan and case format.

    That psu can be mounted in your case with the fan facing down. It's actually upside down in the pic you posted.

    Brand new Corsair power supply... killed my drives? =(

    The free shipping time is an estimate. It all boils down to how far you are from one of their warehouses. I typically receive my orders within 2-3 days.

    Brand new Corsair power supply... killed my drives? =(

    I agree. However the good news is that there always seems to be a MIR available, and it just so happens that Provantage is selling them for $110 AR (+shipping). Fixed. ;) Buy.com has it for $90 shipped.

    UPS suggestions?

    No. Stay away from standby UPS'es (read more) and stick with a line-interactive unit. If I had $100 to spend on a UPS then I would consider the CyberPower 850AVRLCD.

    Corsair 400CX - Wow!

    According to your screen shot the 5V rail is out of ATX spec, so I wouldn't consider those software voltage readings solid or accurate. Please test the rails with a DMM and report back with your results.

    A standard ATX psu will fit as long as you bend a few 'tabs' on the back of the case.

    RebateStatus got me on my BFG

    One of the many reasons it's a good idea to make photocopies of all materials before sending the originals. Hopefully the BFG rep will pull some strings. ;)

    PC:PNC Silencer 750w question

    1) The missing pin is the -5V lead which was removed from the ATX spec several years ago. It was mainly used for powering old ISA cards and some motherboards with onboard "amplified" sound. 2) You can test your psu by leaving only a fan, HDD, or other device connected and inserting a...

    Question...

    It sounds like you're relying on one of those psu calcs. ;) My rough estimate would be closer to a 275-325W (depending on CPU o'c) load at the wall running Prime95 on all 4 cores, 3DM06 looping, and copying data across all drives.

    power supply tester question

    Correct, however the -5V was also used by ISA cards and some motherboards with integrated audio.
