I have an EVGA Supernova G2 750W unit I purchased new back in July. I don't game and rarely go over 80-100W load. I've left it on for days before. However yesterday when I came home from work, my computer was off. I couldn't power it back on. I tried different outlets and plugs. I used the PSU tester accessory to power the PSU on by itself and that didn't work.
I headed out to pick up a new PSU and when I came back an hour later, I tested the PSU again and it worked! I'm atyping on it now with no issues. The unit itself is a quality unit according to reviews, but now I'm concerned about its reliability after encountering this weird situation. I was planning on making this computer as a home server leaving it running 24/7 too.
Any insights on what may have happened?
