cant really see how this would burn the mainboard and kill the cpu...
but it sure wont help the board to operate properly, and it aint pretty, thats for sure
and its not really an asus problem, i dont think only asus used those chokes, and they looked fine when asus bought them, i guess... so they couldnt have known that this would happen... i guess this is why asus came up with the idea to have some of the boards components tested by TUV.
really lame from asus to try and dump their stock of the boards at low prices instead of fixing them though...
