I swear to god he really is.
He has a super nice computer, a EVGA motherboard with a 780i chipset, Q9300, and dual gtx260's (had a third installed, but it died,) and he didn't have a good enough psu for that. So what did he do? He wired in two psu's. One to run the graphics cards, and one to run everything else.
Heres where he's stupid. He used two Yulen "400W" psu's. Each one was non-APFC, had 2 Canicon main caps with Miacon secondaries (never heard of them,) the heatsinks were decent-ish sized, but they were just pieces of junk.
I asked him how he could run his computer on those, he said "they are two really nice Yulen power supplies, they are really high quality and will last forever.
"
Long story short, they both blew up.
He used even worse power supplies before those, two 300W sparkles, have some no name caps on the primaries, bright red sleeve, and both of those blew up also.
