sdy284 Posted May 27, 2010 Posted May 27, 2010 Just out of curiosity, would this be caused because he board only takes one CPU power cable from the PSU? I noticed that, and thought it weird, but wasn't sure. I have never owned a board that only took one of them. you mean a 4pin CPU cable? well thats part of the reason these mATX boards won't OC that well IMO but the MSI rep said that my bios got corrupted, and I've got the board back now and it fired up just fine. I just find the corrupted bios story odd because i sure as hell smelled fried electronics when it originally happened. So maybe they fixed w/e I fried and just said the bios corrupted to make them look better? who knows. but as soon as he emailed me to let me know my board was fixed. he 2nd day shipped it to me. So I have no complaints Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

sdy284 Posted May 28, 2010 Posted May 28, 2010 well, i'm 99% sure my PSU fried. The system did the exact same thing as last tame, made click noise and then poof. off, with power LED blinking. and now my whole room smells of burnt electronics, which seems to be coming from my Corsair HX520 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, were you modded the rear 80mm fan panel, is there not enough space for a 120mm fan there? i was thinking rotating the psu 90degrees, drill vent holes in side panel and have it draw in fresh air direct then should have space for a rear 120mm where i'd mount the h50 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BluePanda Posted August 4, 2010 Posted August 4, 2010 Seems like quite the over kill for a HTPC -- but I guess you could have friends over and game it up to in that case... more like a box of entertainment -- not just home theater.
