Hmmmm...well, I think that turning on the PC a second time (after all that smoke came out) was a silly thing to do. It's pretty strange that suck a event took place as Gigabyte makes very good motherboards.

Glad your OK dude!!

i only turned it on to see where the problem was comin from as whatever was smoking was damaged anyway

it wasn't the board's fault, gigabyte is a fairly good brand, it was my 6 year-old power supply that jus let too much power through the circuit

anyway, i got an antec one now and it is a beauty, jus gotta get the whole thing workin!!
