I don't see why the power would have any influence on a cpu upgrade the power that enters the cube is all controlled by the switching brick power supply if it was a power problem the brick should burn up not the dc dc board, to me it sounds like a defective card pulling too much power from the dc board, doesn't really matter where you plug your cube in the external power supply takes care of that.
