      Most components will still run for atleast 30s while half of it is on fire.

          I’ve had a gtx 660 pop when it was drawing 300+W at nowhere near safe voltages. And a cheap p55 asrock mobo with a godlike clock gen but only 4 shitty vrm phases, everything was fine until I switched to water cooling without realising the tower fan was also cooling down the vrm heatsink.
