Hi I'm wondering if some one could describe for me what
kind of damage happens to your PC/mother board when you install a graphics card that's too powerful for your
power supply to handle and some sort of damage does
occur. I've read people describing how you could
potentially 'fry your system'.
I assume that means the mother board or is it the power
supply that gets taxed? Or both? Does it do something
like damage components like hard-drive or CPU too?
'Could those hypothetically be salvaged from a damaged system?
I'm sure there are varrying degrees of potenial damage
but would like to know what and how that damage might
happen.
Thanks.
