Cool beans. Tongue

I will be putting the server back online in a bit, hope to get more people playing though.
Server is up. I only usually take the server down while playing and idling TF2 accounts. Someday I might invest in a cheap dedicated box when/if I ever have the money.
I'll be up for a game when you guys are.
hmm....
lolTongue...
I got on last night and the server was up, but no one was on so I didn't really play Tongue
Server is down. My PSU is failing again, I'm pissed as hell as this is the second defective Corsair HX850 I've gotten that has failed within the year. I've submitted an RMA with Corsair and have to mail it back for a replacement. Here is hoping the replacement PSU won't be defective as well..
Hmm...Corsair is usually good Undecided

It appears I'm not the only one experiencing issues with this particular PSU except few others experienced failure sooner than I did. For me it took months before both PSU's failed. Actually both PSU's failed on me at 6 - 7 months after purchase.

Even a generally good brand can make a bad unit and/or product. Nearly every good PSU brand has at least 1 if not more poorly rated products, which is why I always tell people to look at the product, not the brand. However the HX850 is a generally very well rated product, based on both professional and user reviews. Which would seem to suggest that you're just unlucky.

All signs point to unlucky, it seems that my family and myself are cursed with bad luck. Nothing good ever happens to us and bad luck seems to hit when I or my family can do nothing about it like not having any money. I am getting some money next week so I'll use that to RMA to PSU for a replacement. Think I will invest in a Thermaltake PSU as I don't trust that the next HX850 PSU won't fail on me as well.

Others are in the same boat, reporting the same issues. Some had theirs fail within a couple weeks, some within months, some might have theirs fail at some point and some might not have theirs fail at all.
