Do any of you know why my PC might have fried 2 power cables (not the supply itself) within a month? Second time she won't turn on last time it was just the cable, can't assume that's the cause right now but it smells like the power supply itself may be bad. I could see one faulty cable but two seems odd
The Internet has been enshittified to the point that searching for this seems obnoxious also I have to search on my phone because obviously my PC won't turn on lol
Update things are going well that's the shattered glass side of my case lol

It's not but I used the one that came with the power supply
Are you using the correct setting on the PSU for the wall power? There is usually a little switch for 110v vs 220v on the PSU. It also a good idea to have a decent surge protector power strip thing between the PSU and the wall to prevent this type of stuff. Just trying to cover the basics, ignore if you already know this stuff.
Surge protector yes. Picked up a new power supply I'll check for the switch
