Fuck if I know why. Kept tripping off the UPS, like a short had developed. Even did the pin 16-17 jumper test on the motherboard cable to try to start it, after I ripped it out of the case.

What a pain in the ass. Not under warranty still.

That sucks.

What’s the make/model?

I usually put my money on Corsair power supplies, they are built with quality capacitors (that’s what almost always fails).

Correcting my misspelling of the word nerd only proves that you're a nerd.

Most of my computers die because of the PSU. I bought an Antec Gold for my most recent PSU, and it's lasted me several builds so far, and I hope it lasts for several more. Now you've got me worried that Gold rate PSUs still aren't impenetrable. May have to go Platinum rated, if this one ever dies....

brb, getting the canned air, to clean it out. Babygurl needs to last me at least one more build, pls.
