So i plugged a 1.6 PSU into a 1.3 board. It never powered up and it looks like there are no standby voltages that are higher on a 1.6 But am i fucked. Do you guys know if a board could survive such a blunder? Is it worth buying a comparable PSU?

Honestly for anyone else thats worried about this, it's not a big deal at all. There is a small chance you could cause damage via power surge but that would be an unlucky break there. More than likely it just won't power the console at all. If you do happen to damage it you can still get a replacement PSU or motherboard though and start over that way without having to buy a whole new console.
