It's certainly a possibility.
Have you checked the heatink and CPU are still in nice and firmly. Also it might be worth pulling out all the cards and RAM sticks then replaceing them and checking they are pushed into the slots nice and tight.

Should also check the monitor to see if it can auto sense the AC voltage. (check the rating plate on the back, should show something like: Input Voltage: 100 to 240)

Any *decent* power supply I would think would sense the wrong voltage and stop without damage.
