My mate had a Cyberpower prebuilt blow up on him, cheap PSU took out the motherboard. RIP.

 

Prebuilts are fine, but cheap ones often cut in dangerous places to keep margins high.

    many factors would come into play

    how stable was the power coming out of the wall

    any lightning strikes

    were all fasteners tight

    but yeah dont cheap out

    @Schnoz The shame is the rest looked fairly good!

     

    H170 board, i7-6700, 16GB DDR4 dual channel.

     

    Bad parts were the PSU and cooler, which was a slim intel stock cooler like you'd get from an i3.
