well electricity came back because it was just a fuse for my room so it was no problem there thank god! xD but for my PC I dont know yet, only from power supply there was a weird smell so I hope its just that and nothing else.... ;( thankfully I have 3 year warranty for power supply :) but I am still not sure if I should try to power up computer I am afraid its gonna go on fire or fry my other components if it isn't it already... :D

i don't think that's the PSU's fault. seems like your room's power lines were overloaded. do you have air-conditioning or other power hungry equipment on the same fuse? the sound you described could mean severe AC under-voltage going to your PSU.

I have my monitor, my pc, speakers which do not eat much only 100W and a night lamp which is also quite useless. That is all in my room which goes for electricity oh and have a phone charger constantly plugged in. So what are your suggestions? U think it was amper problem, voltage, something overloade? How would i for example know this or test? I tried today to power up my PS with a voltmeter and a wire without PC and fan did not start and there was also no voltage when I tested it so it is definetly out my Power supply :)
