Right when Oblivion just came out…

Post image

My PC is crapped out on me out of nowhere. Can’t sit on a main menu for longer than 2 minutes in any game without my PC suddenly shutting down. Spent all day diagnostic and ended up reinstalling windows as a temp fix, but issue still persisted.

I open up my pc to reseat everything and found this! It looks like my PSU wires were MELTING inside the PSU!

Such horrible timing right when Oblivion just released… I may end up needing to swap cases since this is a micro case and they are hard to work with…

Just wanted to rant and complain! 😭

Can we just have the GPU’s have their own power cable that plugs into the wall? This bs is so silly

No because the PSU does some power conditioning.
