Is a CPU disabled when there was a short circuit ?

[Discliper]

Hello,

I once had a short circuit due to my powersupply. The graphics card PCI plug and the mainboards USB plugs were disabled.

Does that mean the CPU is disabled too ?

That PSU is ''80+Nothing'', it is the Lowest quality in Corsair...

Should have bought at least ''80+Bronze'' PSU.......

For the future, spent a bit more on a psu, that's the most important part in your rig :3

Laptops comes with built in UPS, So They are immune to most types of Short circuit, sudden power outage, voltage up-down, over voltage, thunderstorms, etc.

Where does that BS info come from?

Laptops are all made very cheap; no they can't detect or stand up to such things. No more then your average Desktop PSU can, which are very sensitive to such things.

The only upside Laptop has in any regard as this, is if power is lost, it has the internal battery to fall back on.

If you're not using a UPS, you have nothing between you electronics and the outside power; period.

All a UPS does that is protect against brownouts and data loss incase of power outage. UPS does not equal surge protector although it is almost impossible to find one these days without surge protection built in. If a laptop is plugged in the wall a surge can and will still fry it. However the battery does protect against brownouts and data loss which is what a UPS actually does.

are you sure about this....??

Laptops are not Pre built PC from ibuypower/Cyberpower etc. Gaming Laptops are a Thousand Dollar equipment from Leading brands like ASUS, MSI etc. And comes with 3 years warrnaty. Because people can't change Laptops parts normally, they usually comes with high quality parts from factory, Not low quality.

I have used 4 laptops, never seen any cheap quality parts inside them. Don't confuse Pre-Builds with Good Brand Laptops.

Laptops pricing doesn't mean they are not still delicate as a flower; which all of them are.

They have no protections. They can fry just as easily as anything; your phone, Desktop PSU; etc.

To make space for the battery most laptops dont have a PSU and instead use the battery as that supplies DC. The power brick is the actual AC/DC PSU and to make them small and not the size of a desktop grade one they are incredebly delicate and have no to little protection.

They're also literal batteries, which makes them more likely to break or catch fire than an actual PSU brick because of the chemicals stored within them.

Why do you think there's a new exploding Phone/Tablet/Laptop every year?

True but laptop batteries are usually enclosed in a heavy casing instead of covered in plastic wrap like all phones do it these days. That makes them a bit safer and can sometimes contain a malcunction with the battery.
