I allowed Windows 10 to update after many months, then booted up Jagged Alliance 3 and minutes later my PSU exploded. The sparks were so bright, large and numerous that I genuinely think I saw an open flame starting to form for a split second.

I'm sure it's a coincidence, but still. It's not a particularly intensive game (although not amazingly optimised) and I had played it before the same day, the only difference was the update. I don't know what I'm getting at, laugh at my misfortune if you must.

I'd post a pic of the damage, but I don't care if you believe me.

I'd like to see! To contribute, my PSU popped something once but didn't create any visible sparks, just smell. Thankfully every component was okay besides the PSU needing a replacement

My dad already took it apart. He initially thought he might be able to fix it (despite the fireball I described to him as well), then said the transformer's probably toast. I have no idea what that means, I'm clueless about hardware. Oh well, I'll get a new one tomorrow. I have no idea why all my hardware issues happen over the weekends.

It's more likely a MOSFET that broke not the transformer.
