Just built a phenom x6 (4ghz o/c) 16gb ddr3,, crosshair iv 890 and 2x5770s and 6 hard drives, pci sound card, 6 case fans running off the main board. Worked fine for 5-6 days, running on a corsair 550watt, then iv been out the house for 5 days (shut pc down), came home today.....turned on, nothing, looked in case no lights on main board nothing, totally like is no power, so obviously abit worried that my expensive main board died, but shorted the psu 24pinn power cable with only a 4 pin fan attached, nothing, dead, shorted an old 200watt with 4 pin fan attached using same power cable from same wall plug and sure enough it started spinning....... So I'm fairly sure the psu is dead right?
But what caused this? What are the chances it took my pc components with it?
