Hi, I was playing PlanetSide 2 MMO FPS game yesterday and I think it screwed up my PC. It wasn't the first time I played the game, but yesterday when I did, my PC got suddenly switched off. I thought it was overheating problem. So I switched off my UPS and after a minute i switched it ON again, but my PC wasnt getting powered up when I pressed the Power button. I opened the cabinet and saw that the green led of the motherboard was still lit. Did my PSU fail?
I was using a low quality PSU named Odyssis 450W. Here is the link for the psu:
http://shopping.rediff.com/product/odyssey-450w-power-supply/11476973

If it is my PSU, can I get some suggestions to buy a better quality PSU? this is my config:
Core i5-760 2.8ghz
4GB DDR3 RAM
Intel DH55TC motherboard
GTX 750Ti 2GB GPU

I think 450W was enough to support this mid range config. So what could have gone wrong? Why did my PSU fail? :(
I shortlisted Cosair VS450W psu to buy.

get Corsair vs550 it will be sufficient for your rig, also it is silent, sufficient and cheap in price as compared to other brands, and don't get panic by reading rumors about corsair PSUs. I also have corsair psu and it is working great

Will it have a good life span? at least 3-4yrs should be fine.
