So, a few nights ago, my wife was lookin something up for me on the internet. She found what I was lookin for, then went on to whatever she was lookin for. As soon as her site loaded, she heard a POP. I opened the cabinet that holds the tower, and, sure enough, the warm, tangy smell of blown capacitors, melted resistors, and cooked transformers. Opened the power supply to take a look around, and well, theres one capacitor that blew tiny bits of insulator onto a transformer and a few micro-resistors that fried themselves.
At least it gives me the excuse to throw in a bigger power supply.
