New Computer Smell? LOL

[Interested]

Is it normal to have like a faint smell of metal/electricity in the air after building a new computer? Or should i trash my PSU asap?

Hm my computer smelled new for a while. I think it's just new PSUs, nothing to worry about unless you start smelling smoke...

Yea, i think its normal. The reason i ask is because i could not remember whether my old build did it when it was new (3 years ago) or not.

This smell occurs every time I build a new computer, it's nothing to worry about. I like the smell actually. It gives me the same feeling as a new car smell does.

yea, same!
