A few days back, I switched on my computer (perfectly fine even 8 hrs back) and found that it is shutting off after 1.5 seconds. Just the fans spinning for 1.5 seconds and then shuts down. After that, it was not starting at all until I unplugged the PSU, wait for the Standby LED to turn off and plug it again. After that while trying to turn on, the same thing happened. This continued for 3-4 times until I heard a loud pop along with spark inside the PSU. So I removed the PSU and connected an old local (but good-5 years old) PSU and thankfully the system is up and running again. I confirmed that the rest of the components are okay by doing a combined CPU/GPU stress test and verifying all the SSDs and hard drives. Played Rise of the Tomb Raider for well above 5 hours too.
The PSU here is the Corsair GS 700 2013 edition and it is just a little over 2 years old. It it still under warranty and I am planning to take it tomorrow. The thing is, do any of you have any similar experience like this? I am kinda shocked that the secondary side failed which was actually quite dangerous for the components and unexpected from a power supply of this tier. There are no problems with the household AC line (grounding is also working). The system is as mentioned on specs.
