Razor12911 is on a distinguished road
there is something I don't get based on Power produced by a power supply, an increase in the power increases the current right? based on Physics... Since Voltage stays the same because of the 240V from the plugs, so the BIOs shows that Voltage is below normal it means the current is higher right? based on the formula P=IV. My question is, what destorys Components in a computer, is it Voltage or Current, Last time there were abnormalities in the power supply, I lost a Graphic card, It went on fire(like really on fire). Just need to prepare for something in case it happens again, or I just need to move out of the apartment I am living in at the moment, TV's power got messed up the other day as well. it just stopped working, Microware as well. Pretty much everything in the house dies, Microware was new and costed USD370.
Or I must take a volt reading using a voltmeter, maybe Socket volt is 300V or so, Just need to check.
