power supplies run hot
when things run hot... things will die
- capacitors and inductors and transistors die over time
it will still marginally work, like you're seeing
and during bootup, when the most current is needed, it may not be
able to keep it at +5.00V and +3.300V and +12.000V for the first
0-5 seconds when its sending out 50-100amps in a giant spike
