Please dont tell me its already screwed ><, i have not plugged it into my system yet
 
I think it's some sort of glue to stop the coils from high frequency vibration aka coil noise.
 
Nah definitely not a blown cap, I think my HX650 has glue on the same spot.
 
Phew i will get on with hooking it up now, thank god seriously i felt sick when i saw it, really didnt want to RMA the thing.

:D
 
Some naughty Corsair employee left something for you in there lol cotton swobs, CSi Miami -> Dna testing
 
lloooolll :p

It's the new craze... it's called autoerotic electrocution.
 
Spanking the monkey at work......naughty boys.....must have been a slow day on the 650W line........:eek:

I just bought a new TX-850 and there is stuff like that all over the place. ;)
 
Again it's normal. I've seen it on all types of PSUs from cheap to high end ones
 
It's probably actually better than naked coils. There's far too much coil whine out there and maybe this helps prevent it.
