Pre built MSI computer, PSU exploded in under 2 years, MSI replaced it with the the exact same PSU?

So I bought the PC around 1.5 years ago and 4 weeks ago my PSU exploded while gaming. I've returned the PC and they said they're gonna replace it under warranty - I just got the PC back and I literally have the same PSU now as I did when it exploded

Wtf is MSI thinking? I'm baffled - My PC has a i7 14700f with a 4070 super

The psu is 500w which is really low considering the specs and IT LITERALLY HAS NO CERTIFICATION on it

anyone else had a similar case to this?

Pre built MSI PC power supply exploded in under 2 years

MSI MAG Infinite S3 14NUE7-1672DE was my PC which I bought December 2024. While playing my power supply made a quick bang and nothing worked anymore. It's a joke they put a 500w non certified PSU in this computer, it's paired with a 4070 super and i7 14700f

Does anyone know if pre built MSI PCs have special cables I need to connect to a new PSU? I've never done this before which is why I'm asking
