Okay, SO. I got this new power supply from Newegg. It's a Rosewill 750w. http://www.rosewill.com/products/698/productDetail.htm
I recently had issues with a different mobo and had to RMA it. So we figured, hey lets get a new PSU too. So it all arrived today. I put in my CPU, the heatsink, some Corsair RAM, and my new shiny power supply. Figured I'd test it before I put any more time into putting my computer back together. Plug it in, BAM! Giant pop and giant spark from the power supply. Is this just a bad PSU, or could something else have caused it?
But really, my biggest worry, what are the chances that the power supply could have caused damage to the mobo, RAM, or CPU?
