750 TI need 750W? That is pretty overkill. haha. You fixed the psu yourself or the shop helped? Some case fans cannot tahan overvoltage one since your computer is from Acer, and will burn the board/psu with the fans.

bring to distro, they will do testing for you. If it is indeed spoilt, they should replace it.
IIRC, 7 years warranty for that psu. but try to see the front and back of the board , cpu , all parts to locate any burn first.
Shop help. With fee of course. Why didn't he mention this to me damn it. He told me for future upgrades it's useful. That's all.
Think 3 years only. So I bring back to the sim lim shop right?

Yes....Corsair maybe 7 years I heard....750w is simply overkill...the shopkeeper not very honest....if the shop fix it for you....bring the entire set back to the shop. Corsair is premium brand.....hard to believe 1 month kaput liao.
Btw, which shop is that?

Wattage has nothing to do with voltage.

same thinking lor. i would black list it too. but of course need confirmation by ts first. seems like he don't know what's going on when he buy it.
Hmm he didn't mention about overkill .. Some shop in level 2
did you told him you using 750ti? 750w very very overkill, shop recommend it or you ownself choose?
He fix my gpu for me too. He did recommend 660 cm but told me is old model the corsair is newer and make me tempted as he say next time diy can reuse

I saw. While the PSU is more powerful than he needs, it will only affect efficiency. My point is that a PSU with higher wattage does not mean that it will supply more volts. The fans are likely powered off the 12V rail, which will still be 12V whether you use a 300W PSU or 1000W PSU.
since he is into repairing pc, maybe bring to let them check lor. Most likely they will ignore you unless you pay a fees. Most shops after assembling the pc for you, after 1-2 weeks, is not their taichi liao.
else, corsair RMA center is
