You get swelling and exploding capacitors.

I have a VIA EPIA mini-ITX motherboard in a VIA Sereniti case which I
powered up this evening. As we were getting ready for dinner, we heard a
fairly loud whistling noise. Shirley pointed to my "office" and the cloud
of smoke coming from the computer. I guess one of the power supply's
electrolytics
