This is hypothetical, but if a faulty Corsair PSU were to damage my CPU would I be entitled to compensation for the damage?
As it is my CPU may be fine, until I receive a new PSU I won't know. But I understand it is possible for it to have been damaged, I have talked to Intel who had this to say about the warranty on it.
"In general, if the CPU has been damaged due to another component (e.g. motherboard sending overly high voltage), it's unfortunately not covered by the warranty, as the product did not fail because it was faulty, it was damaged."
Which I understand, but surely I should be entitled to some sort of compensation from Corsair due to the product being faulty, right?
Also, posting this in Power Supplies because I'm not too sure on where I should be posting it.
