So I was turning on my EGPU enclosure when my roommate noted one of the fans wasn't turning. I tried to kind of kickstart it with a small screwdriver I had on my desk. What neither of us realized (until it was too late) was that that fan belonged to the power supply. There was a pop and a spark and the whole circuit went dead. Now nothing happens when I flip the switch (with the enclosure plugged into a different circuit). I'm pretty sure I damaged the power supply in some way, but a) is it repairable by me and b) could that have damaged the graphics card as well?
