Can underloading a power supply damage it?
ok, I have a PC with the specs below:
PSU : Tagan TG1100-U96 1100 watt PSU
Mobo : Gigabyte GA-M57SLI-S4
CPU : AM2 6000+
RAM : 2GB Coursair Dominator(800mhz)
Audio : Sound Blaster Audigy ZX Platinum Pro
Video : nVidia GeForce 8800 Ultra
HDD : 1 500GB SATA 3.0 HDD
Optical : 1 SATA DVD-RW
A voltage control transistor exploded on my MB while the PC was installing windows. A friend of mine said that since I have a very high wattage power supply and not a lot of devices on it that I am underloading the power supply and damaging it
I borrowed a PSU tester from another friend of mine and discovered that the -5 light on it was not iluminating when I was testing the motherboard connector. When I contacted Tagan about it, they said it was normal for a PSU above 600 watts to not have this light iluminated when using a tester
I have been in IT for over 10 years and have never heard of either of these occurances
Should I buy a smaller PSU for now?
Thanks in advance!
No your power supply is fine...From what you mentioned, your motherboard have defective capacitor. So it's nothing to do with your PS. Don't need to buy a new PS.
