    Is my PSU about to bomb?

    Well, last night I noticed the light on my surge protector flickering oddly so I decided to take everything off it and plug them directly into the wall outlets.

    24" Widescreen CRT (FW900) From Ebay arrived,Comments.

    Yo, guys. So, here are a couple of crappy pics to show what my monitor is doing.
