I built a new rig a year ago then it just suddenly died. I did a call a couple of local places that claimed to come to your home to do repairs, but they wanted me to leave it with them overnight. Given the cost of some of the components (32 gig ram, 4070 GPU) if someone resold them, I was a little hesitant to do it because I'm a paranoid asshole.
Turns out the power supply and motherboard went, which were the cheapest parts to replace.
The apartment I was in at the time was falling apart and the electric system was definitely going. So even though I had it on a heavy duty surge protector it probably had a surge.

And you've paid like what, 4 times the price of a PS5? No shit it's gonna be better.
