tuner04civic Posted December 6, 2009 Share Posted December 6, 2009 i had my setup for over a month now and was browsing online when all the sudden i had a large pop come from my computer and followed by the power in the house going off. im figuring its a power supply issue since every time i try to turn the power on the computers psu nothing happens followed by the power in the house going off due to it. any helpful hints to fix this. i know im going to most likely need a replacement psu... will corsair cover this under warranty? and my other question is there any chance anything else on the computer got fried with this pop? im not an expert on computers and only have some knowledge but a friend had me set this up and it has worked fine until now randomly.

Wired Posted December 6, 2009 Share Posted December 6, 2009 PSU's got overvoltage protection so it's unlikely anything got fried. OTOH if the PC got hit by a big surge (e.g. lightning), it's possible to nuke the whole box. Request an RMA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
