    Sell it? I had to disconnect that computer, Anus probe started warning of low voltage on the 12v rail. It was in the low 10v range. Even if anus probe is off a little, that PS is shot I'm betting.

    Computer turns off problem

    With my rig, and what I've read on the Ultra-X connect, I would replace the PS with a better brand. Any suggestions on what PS I should get would be helpful. I'm nervous. I don't want to fry my rig.
