accidentally not working power supply

[maneksameer]

I have a PSU that worked perfectly, before my brother sent it through courier and I suppose a person dropped it hard (really hard) AND when it reached me, it was not turning on! The PSU is corsair GS600 and it has costed me a fortune! 

 

Is this repairable (and is out of warranty)? and please try not to suggest buying a new PSU as I can't afford to have one right now until it's the only resort..

Have you tried to RMA?

The internals of computer power supplies can LITERALLY KILL YOU.

 

DO NOT TRY TO FIX IT

The GS is probably still within warranty. When did you buy it?

well, i think i cannot return it, apart from that, i don't think warranty covers any physical damage

I just found an antec 500w PSU, can it be right for my PC?

 

config:

i7 2nd gen,

8 GB RAM

XFX HD 6950 1GB GPU

2 x 80mm fans in the case, and a samsung 21' full HD monitor

 

(I do think it needs some more juice, but that's my pocket limit as PSUs in India are very costly) if you got any other PSUs, please refer it to me

It's not a very good PSU so there's no reason to be attached to it

antec vp500w... I also saw corsair vs 650 (but doesn't seem reliable) and a cooler Master B600.. which is good among them?

The B600 is the best of those.
