Well crap.
PCP&C PSU died Sunday night when I cranked the machine up after being off for 4 days over the vacation. Exploded on startup.
Luckily I am within the 5 year warranty, so I will be RMA'ing after my new one comes in (I'm at work right now..) - Replacing it with a 750 version w/ Quad Video Card connectors-
First PSU to actually explode- should I be expecting the worst in that it took other stuff with it? Or does a PSU failure limit it'sself to the PSU? It seems to me if a cap explodes in the PSU, it can't send voltage out into the system anymore and so it shouldn't hurt anything upon failure..
Any experiences otherwise?
