Now that its been running the duel fans, I notice the power supply is fairly warm to the touch. How much would be normal? Cant say as I ever noticed it before when running a single.
Thanks

It should be fine, Doug. Power supply's can get warm, as long as its not HOT. If you can hold it, its ok. They usually are designed to burn out before they cause a fire or anything anyways

Thanks Dan. I put a little cooling fan to cool the power supply for the cooling fans.
