Like 40mins ago my powersupply just blew out taking circut breaker fuse with it, so now my room and the bathroom are out of power for now. But that isn't really my concern at the moment. I'm just wondering if everything in my pc is gonna be fine or not, seeing how it's sunday i doubt ill have much chance of seeing what it's by taking it to a shop, or finding one opened to get another powersupply to see. on my laptop till then. So the title^^, has anyone had one blow and everything else was fine or is that just a rare chance of it not taking anything with it?. Bought everything off newegg september of last year, sent an email though i doubt ill hear back from them till tomorrow. On that note, will they refund/exchange if it's worst case scenario? (Sorry if this is the wrong section) Edit- Alright nevermind, seems it was just the PSU. Picked another PSU up today, and everything seems fine for now. Guess ill find out in a few days if it messed anything up.
It's the right section. And often, when power goes out to part of the house, it's just because you had too much stuff plugged in. Often, you just go to the circuit breaker and flip the switch that isn't lined up with the rest(often about half an inch to the left or right of the others. Just push it all the way away from the rest, and back into the line. If the power just went out, that should fix it. Not sure whether it will be okay, cause I've never fried a power supply. But more often than not, newegg's return policy is 30 days.
Ah, alright. Forgot about the 30day thing with newegg. But yeah, powersupply is gone, was in the middle of mass effect before my room went black and saw sparks and smoke shooting out of my PSU.
Rosewill. Heard their lower end PSU weren't that good, heck someone even told me to stay away from them altogeather, when i was ordering parts for my PC, but i wasn't planning on useing the system longer then a year till i had enough for a higher end PC, so i went with it since reviews didn't seem too bad on newegg at the time. And it helped get my PC into budget.
