My mate usually leaves his PC running 24/7 the for a week he turned it off.
Just yesterday he turned it back on and while going through loading windows the PSU blew and smoke came out of it.
I think he has bad power in his house or his room is way too filthy as this is not the first time he has had a PSU die on him.
His PSU was generic and I'm wondering if it has the potential to damage the hardware by blowing up.
