I've lived in 2 different houses over the past 5 years, and BOTH of them simply eat power supplies. I've gone through literally a dozen power supplies. I've had 2 that outright exploded, with fire, loud popping, and smoke. Most of them either die the silent death, or act like described above (power on and after x seconds it powers off).

probably 3/4th of them were cheap shitty ones...for awhile I was buying $30 cases from Frys just to get the 420w PSU out of them (ironically the case+PSU was $30 but PSU alone was like $65 lol). The expensive ones seemed to last longer but they are also the ones that literally detonated when they did finally go out.
