Just a wild thought but you could just drop a match inside

Use wrong power supply cables to start a short

Switch the PSU's swich to 110V and put it in a 230V socket!

Get a 4090 with one of those defective cables

Just leave the CPU and GPU power cables a little loose, they will make contact but not being properly connected will start burning the cable. I know because it happened to me once jaja, the good thing was that I had the motherboard out of the case and nothing caught fire, but damn, it threw a nice flame and charred the cable. It didn't damage the CPU port by the way. For anyone curious, I was using a 500w power supply on a Ryzen 3 3400G and an A320m-K board

Maybe just blow up a bunch of TNT on max graphics in MC

Here’s a serious suggestion-
Take a DuPont wire, or breadboard wire or whatever or something thin gauge. Wrap it in paper or tape, and then use the 12v and ground pins in a molex, 8 pin or whatever connector. Turn the pc on and the huge amount of current in the wire should cause it to catch on fire and ignite the paper

Place a small capacitor and run wires to a charge circuit/power source with a variable resistor. This way you can relatively safely overcharge the capacitor, blowing it up and most like create fire. I would say also put the fire extinguisher more centralized in the case to prevent the CO2 gas to be sucked out with the airflow

256 render distance with shades in Minecraft is proved to be the most efficient and effective way also downloading a 4000x texture pack will speed up the proccess

A small gpu upsidedown or a pc from temu 😅

I've worked with PCs for well over 20 years. Not one has ever caught fire on its own. In order for that remote possibility there had to be a short somewhere which means your wires or your connectors are messed up. those things don't just happen overnight.

[evinbogdanov]

put 2 pins at the side of the gpu and then put gum rap (one side aluminum and one side paper) and i recommend putting a trail to the fire extuingishere so it can defuse the fire

Use a peltier module over cpu, under the cooler

[uattias]

Short circuit the CPU socket.
It'll get the CPUs power delivery all kinds of messed up.

These ways can do your job


A cable forced into a connector
backwards. ...
A power supply (PSU) failing in a bad way.
Overheating parts like the CPU that causes destruction of the integrated circuit, essentially melting the internal connections.

The best fire extinguisher for PCs is the extra second you spend making sure plugs and connections are snug and fit tight

[patchstep]

Set up a candle right under the extinguisher

What happens if u use isopropyl alcohol to cooldown a PC?

this thing will go off during an average session on my laptop 🔥
