earlier today launched a video game and my pc restarted and i there was like a plastic burning smell .. i didnt know exactly where it came from but i thought it came from the PSU so it turns out i had a very bad one for my current system, so bought a new 600W PSU ... and connected everything.. and it happened again and there was a burning smell again .. i kept looking for the source until i found ouyt that it was the PGU converter that i had to connect for my old PSU and i totally forgot to remove it when i got the new PSU.. now the GPU cable had some brown spots on one or two of the gold lead thing ... the converter is molten.
is there a way to know my PGU health now after i connected it with the PSU without a converter?
and should i do so or go visit the tech guy?
how do i know if it was damaged or not? (it's currently running at 36 temperature but i havent tested it while playing games because im a little worried it might happen again)
what should i do, im nervous as hell
and i'm sorry i could post a picture or make a proper thread with decent info .. i'm new to this website
