One of my friends is on his 4th build and is still using the same PSU from early 2000's. Like, seriously, those things never fail. my previous PC had a PS fail, this PC had one fail, my current work PC had one fail, I just had one fail the other week, and I find it's a very common, maybe the most common, reason for a PC to fail. definitely one of the more common repair jobs I have to do. I mean there's a reason a power-supply tester is a thing. actually just had a ~54V adapter fail yesterday which is almost the same thing. that one was interesting because when you plugged it in it would read like 53.6V, but would tick down very steadily about 0.1V per second almost like a clock. 52.0V, 51.9V, 51.8V, 51.7V down and down all the way to 13.2V, 13.1V, 13.0V, and on. but unplug it and plug it back in, and it's right back at 53.7V and counting down. --- This day is gone. We can't relive it. It's gone forever. https://www.stopkillinggames.com <cite>Sahuagin posted [p:980247394] in This is wh...
