My PSU died. It was 700 W but I am wondering if I was overdoing it a bit...
Would be grateful for advice!

(sorry can't check the exact spec right now. Hope a ballpark figure is sufficient...)

i5 processor, "average" a bit overclocked.
Nice Asus motherboard.
2 graphics cards NVIDIA, very average, nothing special, but both have a fan.
Basic water cooler for the CPU. Has one fan, for blowing out air.
One other fan in the case.
2 laptop hard drives
6 hard drives
2 cards in the PSI slots
