Well its not near to the heatsink -

Btw..my psu is a 550w, connected up to an athlon 2600, my gfx card, one dvdrw drive and 3 hard drives but its...generic (i never saw the point in shelling out for a brand name).

Maybe i should of made it more clear, the scorching is around metal connection things inside the molex..

Ill take a look at both the original and the one now in the gfx card at the end of the day.

Sorry raja, its under warranty and if it is playing up...its going back
