So I guess your PSU is fried too? Actually, it might of been the PSU that caused the actual problem.

Damn that sucks. You should be able to RMA it through the manufacturer. I'm pretty sure newegg only covers it for 30 days.

Hahahaha, cool. But seriously, why did you do that? You might have just fried your ram, video card, hard drives...

I did it because I've never seen a picture of an actual burning motherboard on this site. I'm adding to the wealth of knowledge for future generations of overclockers.

That and fire is just plain cool.
