So you overclocked, flashed, volt modded and created your own heatsink on a video card which proceeded to spark and not work and you are RMAing the motherboard?

on the other hand, shall we just say 'the motherboard died in warranty period' to simplify the matter?

I returned the motherboard and it is all taken care off except the card is definitly desroyed. The spark only happend after i did a volt mod in the bios of the card. Then about 10 minutes later when i touched it did it go out on me.
