Hey all. Earlier tonight, I was enjoying some AC: Revelations when my computer randomly shut off. All seemed ordinary till I saw smoke pouring out the top of my PC and got that ever-so-awful fried electronic smell. I have no clue what caused the fire. I had nothing plugged into the audio port near the fire and had a GTX 460 running a second monitor in the nearest PCI slot. This is the type of area my computer knowledge runs dry in. Any idea as to what caused the problem? Any info would be appreciated. Rig is in my sig with up-to-date specs.
My beloved GTX 460, thing was a trooper.
