hey guys..two smd on my motherboard just blew up. I was benching under a chiller @ -20C at 1.66v 5.8ghz and 1.7v vdimm 2250 when i heard a pop and to surface mount devices i saw fried. However i checked the second i heard and there was nothing wet since i insulated it perfectly with plumbing tape... shop towels.. and eraser.
second motherboard gone in a week
not even gonna bother with rma.. just gonna buy me another one from microcenter
i don't think this was a short due to water... i thought 1.7v+ was all good since i saw so many of you guys doing it
