Sometimes they just die. The bitcoin and litecoin forums are full of people bitching about just about every brand of PSU failing from days to months after they bought them.
Yeah, even the most solid/expensive units can succumb to the thrashing of mining. People have their favorite brands and swear up and down there's never been a problem, but when you start mining you try to get the best hash for dollar -- that often means putting 90-100% load on PSUs because "the 850w was on sale."

When my ASIC miners arrive I might just convert my mining computer to a full-time gaming computer. Then again I guess ASICs are susceptible to failures the same as conventional computers.
