Ai1300P blew
Not really going anywhere with this, just wanted to share and get it off my chest.
I have a MSI MEG AI1300P PCIES that I bought specifically for a 5090 that I got last year. Worked fine the last two months, today I was streaming video from crunchyroll (nothing that uses a lot of power) and heard a loud pop and my computer shut down. I smelled smoke, looked in the back and smoke was coming out of power supply. I unplugged everything, took it out and saw that none of the cables were burnt or had visible damage (also checked the GPU end of the 600W cable, so I hope that implies that no damage was done to the rest of the system. I submitted a support ticket and am hoping for best. I just bought this thing in December, so it is still under warranty.
