I just got a brand-new (not refurb) OCZ Fatal1ty 750w power supply a couple weeks ago. Yesterday, I was watching a movie on my PC and suddenly all the power went off. It rebooted and came back up but it has me worried. My old 650w Antec never did that and nothing else has changed in my PC. I checked the 3.3 amp and 12 volt rails and they are right on. Anything else I can check before I send it back to OCZ?
 
I'd guess PSU. Of course, I was thinking RMA the minute I read "OCZ".
 
A single reboot may not be indicative of a PSU problem.

I'll keep my eye on it, but it's strange that this is the only piece I've changed out in a year and suddenly it does that. It wasn't a BSOD like might be caused by memory, etc. It just simply went down with no warning. At first, I thought I might have lost power but nothing else was affected.
