So, I have (had?) a Seasonic Focus+ Gold 650W.
Yesterday, the breaker went, so I investigated. Unplugged everything in the basement and slowly plugged things back in one at a time. When I went to plug in my PC, the PSU sparked and the breaker went again. So, great, seems the PSU is bad.
I have two questions. Can I just replace the PSU? Or do I need to do new cables throughout the system as well?
And two, what should I replace it with? I want to get something better, so hopefully I don't have this problem again.
My specs are:
ASUS Prime X470 Pro
Ryzen 7 2700X
16 GB RAM
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080ti
Windows 10
Thanks for any advice!
