Im playing Fallout NV awhile ago when suddenly our House lights even the outlets cut power.
Not actually no electricity but the lights it flickers (Slowly not fast flicker) and when I pull the power plug of the pc it goes back to normal. And when I put it back (turning on the AVR) it flickers again. It will work when I turn the switch on the back of the psu off/on a few times. It happened about 2 times this month.

Why is it happening?

Is my pc in danger?
It's working fine now again though..

THROW THAT PSU OUT THE WINDOW AND NEVER TOUCH IT AGAIN!!! No seriously, that PSU is dangerous. 500W for $11 is asking for trouble!

Get a new PSU from a reliable brand (Corsair, Antec, SeaSonic, XFX Etc..)
