Dear friends,
In the last few days my pc suffered terrible “blows” from both non-brand and cheap power supply and ups. First the ups went abnormal, burnt two power supplies in sequence and because of its ‘abnormality’ my pc would ‘hang’ and monitor display would shut down and would return back until a pc reset. Then I bought a new power supply which gave less ‘power’ to the pc, because of that my internal hdd would not function and the motherboard would show hdd failure error on the ‘start screen’ after I power-on the pc. Thereafter, I replaced both the faulty power supply and ups with new ones and currently having no problem.
The vendor/seller from whom I bought both the power supply and ups informed me that both defective power supply and ups could burn down a motherboard and good thing my pc possess a branded motherboard which could take all the “blows” from the power supply and the ups and suggested me not to buy unknown-branded and cheap motherboards as they would not have endured the “blows”, might have suffered terrible damage and would have been difficult to claim warranty if the current motherboard was within warranty period.
On the contrary, vendors who normally sell cheap and unknown-branded motherboards informed me that all motherboards, both branded and unknown-branded, are made in china, they are practically the same and hence would withstand any kind of “blow”, either from electricity fluctuations or from malfunctioning ups or power supply.
I am confused whose information are acceptable and practical. I will be pleased if any one of you could shed some light regarding this abnormal situation that has been encountered.
Thanks in advance.
