Default Can ATX PSU blow the mainboard?

it must be good because it boots the computer. Nonsense. The PSU can
be defective or can be missing essential ATX functions. And will
still boot a computer. But when a PSU part fails, many required
functions inside every ATX compatible supply makes computer part
damage all but impossible.

Nonsense. Run a MB with failing capacitors. Besides a diet of PS
units, it'll also eventually take out drives.
