PSU fails dramaticallyfrom r/pcmasterrace
It's accepted wisdom at this point that there are some things you probably shouldn't cheap out on: Tires, tattoos and medical devices sit among the top. But I say a good PSU should be up there if you want your rig to stay intact, as you definitely don't want it blowing up while attached to all of your pretty components. And a recent video going around Reddit has made me doubly sure of that fact.
As shared to the PCMR subreddit, a tech worker was testing a PSU for a potential RMA for a customer. They plugged it in, and within a second, the entire back of it blew up, causing a fire. The sound it makes as it does so is truly horrible, with multiple components frying. At least, with video footage, they show why the RMA is justified.
