>asus anti surge was trigered
Most likely false positive. If it was real surge, your PSU would be fried or the PC lost power instantly -> no chance for BIOS to register that anything is wrong and thus giving you such cool message.

>solution
Disable that thing in your BIOS (F2 / del right after start).

>I am paranoid:
Run furmark, then push button in it called CPU burner, push your system to 100% use. If it holds, nothing is wrong.

Probably a false positive.

While the PSU quality is debatable, it's unlikely to have caused anything.

Turn that shit off and get a proper UPS unit.
