Yeah. Made up stories speak volumes. Like most "RMA stories" there's always more to the story that what you hear. Think about it logically (is that possible?).. The PSU comes with no less than four drive Molexes. It would void the warranty to use more than one? I already said that...

Well... I've said all that needed to be said. Just wait for the reviews. As for those who would "never trust Ultra" I don't expect to change anyone's mind in that respect. I still have a friend who'll never buy a Shuttle motherboard when the one I recommended to him SIX YEARS AGO was DOA...

Really? Sounded more like you wanted to blow it off before knowing anything about it. ;) Review samples will be going out after CES. And they're not going to go to the "we threw it in our PC and it worked" crowd, either. I swear those guys do the industry more harm than good sometimes. :D

No offense, really... but again, your post has a bit of speculation..... Never said it was the customer's fault. I did say that we do acknowledge a problem run and I also stated that these units were being replaced with, not the same, but a better part. We actually do handle such claims...

At risk of sounding confrontational, your perception is downright incorrect. A completely fabricated rumor. There was nothing different between the review samples sent out and those that could be bought at the store. They all shipped out of the same warehouse. The problem with some (very...
