The Antec TruePower New 650W was bought on 08 Oct, 2009!

Smoke came out of the power supply. When I removed it from the case,
some light yellow liquid came out. Fortunately, the motherboard was not
harmed.

So... what could that light yellow fluid be?

Capacitor electrolyte leaking out? What manufacturer is Antec getting
their PSUs made by these days?

waiting for the delivery of that power supply? :)
