Hi,
I got a new machine about two months ago. I've noticed that when the computer is running, the power supply puts off an odor that smells kind of electrical. I have two fans on the back, and I only notice the smell coming from the power supply fan. Is it normal for a power supply to put out any sort of odor? I was thinking that maybe it was because it's new, but really, I don't know anything about this stuff.
Thanks
Edit: I should note that this is the first time that I've ever had a computer with a power supply that pulls air out of the computer. All the other ones I've had pull air into the computer, over the processor.
Thanks again
