Sooo... I switched my case to my new one I just finished painting. Now I hook up all my H20 cooling stuff and make sure that nothing leaked... WEEEEELL, Low and behold that my water pump is now on top of the power supply. Thinking nothing leaked while playing around with the fittings... I come back a few minutes later, plug the power cable in and kaboom sparks fly everywhere and I rip out the power cord of ye old, Vantec Stealth 400w... I'm gonna have to say the funny smell means that biznatch is toast.. So I'm waiting till tomorow just to make sure and hope I got lucky(yeah... Its wishful thinking)... Now I'm looking into new power supplies.. I'm looking at a few now and not sure what I want... Oh well... Any suggestions? Thanks guys..

Yes I know I almost killed myself hah...
 
good thing you're still alive.

yea, that'd be a miracle if the PSU still worked. if it's deemed busted, you should take some pics of the inside :cool: .
 
Another one bites the dust... BUMP BUMP BUMP... No power... I'll take pics as soon as I rip it out.. Hopefully tonight haha..

Anybody know of a host I can use for the pics? I pulled it apart and it doesn't look like anything blew up persay... Only thing I've noticed in the 5 seconds of looking at it is the fuse is blown...
