yea, too bad....but at least I can get it replaced...warranties are really important. I work at one of the major home improvement stores and I see on a daily basis how important warranties are....stuff is constantly returned. Unless an extended warranty is purchased, a customer only has a few months at best in which to be able to bring the merchandise back to the store and get it replaced right then and there...after that, the stuff has to be returned to the manufacturer...and that can take a very long time...and the customer is without the use of that product. So...I am pleased that NewEgg will send me another psu as soon as they get mine. Now that's great customer service!!
