If it wasn’t the PSU or motherboard, then it’s possible they were both just from a bad batch

    The friend I sold it to used the PSU and mobo for another couple years before upgrading, so I think you’re right! Just bad luck on my part hahaha. Thank goodness for good RMA policies!

    Dirty electricity is also a possibility

    Brownouts, surges, lots of electrical stuff can absolutely crap on newer electronics

    I keep my PCs behind a whole home surge protector, on an isobar, and through a sinewave UPS
