I built my new PC this month and it didn’t work. :( first I forgot to turn the power supply on. Then it turned on for a bit and turned off again over and over, the nerd shop man said the motherboard had bent pins and I’m just going to pretend they came like that. He replaced it, said it worked in the shop, then I plugged it in, turned it on, the power supply made a bang and all the fuses in my house blew.

It works now and now I have to send back two broken components and an extra case that Amazon shipped me for no reason. PC gaming and home building ftw.

This is pretty much exactly what I got except double the price because I live in Britain.

Did you buy a different power supply?
