Endless Paradigm

Hi guys,
as you may know I had to buy new PC parts because my old broke.
Well everything is running smooth, however my BeQuiet 500w Dual Rail PSU is getting warm. Note: warm! not hot! and it doesn't smells bu I can still touch the PSU while it's running, it's just warm.
The thing is, it warms up the air under my desk and after a while all the warm air blows in my face which is not that great >.>....

My desk has a partially closed back so the air can't flow that easily backwards but don't worry I left enough space between back wall and PC.

I just wanted to know if it's normal for a powerful PSU to warm up the surrounding air or if my PSU is too week.

It's currently powering:

CPU: AMD x4 Phenom 9850 Black Edition @ 2.5GHz
Mainboard: Gigabyte MA-770-DS3
RAM: 2x 512MB Corsair 1x 1GB Kingston
Graphics: SAPPHIRE RADEON HD4850 512mb
HDD: 1x IDE 180GB 1x IDE 40GB 1x SATA 80GB

um  has this got anything to do with graphics

huh? I posted it in Computer Confab :o

I moved it here.

Oh, sorry I must have mistaken the tabs... >.< Thanks xBu!

A PSU being warm is normal.

As long as it isn't hot...

the power for your computer runs through it, its bound to get hot..

Mine gets rather hot at times, and it's got a 12cm fan...

hot air is blowing into yur face as it has no other way to go.. and you happen to be in the face of its only exit. Alls normal!
