I have been a very good customer of your for some time now. I have been a VERY good customer and between my fiancé and myself, we have spent several thousands of dollars buying items from you in the past! I am hoping that there is some way in which this can be rectified so that we may continue to buy from Amazon with confidence in the future! I removed the CPU and inspected the socket to find that one of the pins had been badly burned! I have just fried over $500 IN COMPUTER PARTS because of this DEFECTIVE power supply that was sold to me! I have tried attaching my other power supply to the motherboard to see what if anything would work, the motherboard will not power up and POST. After unplugging the power supply from the surge protector I retrieved the motherboard from the floor. I then plugged it into the surge protector strip that I own and pushed the "start" button that is an integrated part of this motherboard as soon as I did I heard a loud sizzling electric sound and saw smoke rising from the motherboard's CPU socket! I IMMEDIATELY moved to snatch the power supply cord from the surge protector knocking the motherboard from the test bench in the process. I then connected the 24 pin ATX power cable and the 8 pin CPU cable from the cooler master 500 watt power supply that I purchased from you last weekend. Followed the same procedure that I have been following for 10+ years with no incident! I assembled the items of this computer, an ASUS maximus iv gene-z gen 3 motherboard bought for me for father's day year before last and is currently priced at ~$250.00, an Intel Core I-7 2600K CPU also bought father's day year before last and is currently priced at ~$330.00 and a single stick of RAM. As I build computers quite frequently I am in the habit of assembling the main components together on my test bench to ensure they are working properly before placing them in their case. I put the items into the new case that I bought the week before from another vendor. My work schedule didn't allow me to open this package until this evening when I got off of work. I purchased this power last weekend it arrived on Monday 4/15/13. So in other words spend the extra $20 and get a corsair psu, they are quality good built psu's. i guess a faulty psu is my fault right? yeah because i am the one that put it together and made it blow up when plugged into a SURGE PROTECTOR. So i am not even sure that i can get a new one from cooler master because their warrenties dont cover such things to happen. DONT EVER BUY FROM COOLER MASTER WHEN IT COMES TO PSU, THEY ARE ONLY GOOD FOR CPU COOLERS AND TOWER CASES THEIR PSU'S ARE JUNK. so now i am not sure whether or not this faulty piece of crap psu has fried my whole computer or not. then i walked over to my surge protector and plugged my computer up to it, then, BOOM the dang thing almost exploded it made such a huge spark. so i unplugged it and left it for about 2 days like that. When nothing was plugged into the room except my computer it would still turn off the power. then after about 2 weeks of having it, it started turning off all the power into my living room. so at first i was impressed, and happy that it all worked good. Well first of all i get in my power supply, i hook it up into my new build i just put together myself, it turns on and it runs quiet.
