Hello... Your CM has a rating of 276 watts on the +12vdc rails... your AMD is using 125 watts and the 1060 will need 120 watts from it... that's 88.7% of available, and not a Good efficiency operating range for the PS. B /

As to above utube reference... there is no science (procedure) included for any one, in the field of testing, to explain the results... Let me refer to the AC DC wars of Edison, He would setup a Display/exhibit to Kill animals with AC voltage... there are destructive and NON- destructive testing procedures... and then failure analysis afterwards.

Anybody can cause damage, show sparks and smoke... But what were the Conditions before such event? that's when true science and curiosity come in B /
