EKinSC Posted September 13, 2018 Share Posted September 13, 2018 I finished my new build for a friend yesterday and powered up. All worked well and I installed windows 10. I started downloading some drivers when suddenly I heard a pop and the system went dead. This was followed by a strong burning electrical smell. The system would not turn on anymore. I opened the case and removed the psu which was the source of the smell. I tried the paperclip test and the fan never spun so I'm assuming it's just a faulty psu. I'm going to return it for a new one but was wondering if anyone else had run into this? I'm hoping I didn't damage any of my new components. Hopefully not.
