I have a very strange thing going on with my new card ... watch video i took of it! i turn it on an it goes on fire ...its running off an 850W power-supply.

is it faulty? or is it my gay wiring up...

 
god knows if it still works..doubt it!

Im only using the cables provided from the gfx card you get with it and the normal 4PIN cables straight to the powersupply...no? :\
 
Just incase it hasn't occured to you...

TAKE IT OUT NOW AND RMA IT INSTANTLY

Although I presume (well, hope) you're not still using it) :p
 
You probably should have used the pci-e cables with your psu instead of the adapters, not sure if it would have prevented the card catching fire though. Looks like its coming from the VRM area, might just be bad luck.
 
card is now dead.

the adapters were for psus without the right connectors, yours already has the right connectors by the looks of things..?

that psu is **** and made the card catch fire. Not worth a tenner let alone £80.

You should return the psu to craplins with this video.
