What Happens during a Power-Surge of your Desktop PC?

during a power surge the system components are subjected to more power than they be designed to withstand. think of a dampen main, what would surface if suddenly an extra 10000 gallons of water be pushed through suddenly when it was already at max dimensions. thats a very nonspecific description, but you get the model.

most components just die out. literally, they died, too much power, cause it to short, it fried itself. once this happens you cannot reverse the mar.
