Hello my wife thought she would give the division a go on her pc and something on the gpu has gone pop.
she has i5 3570k with h100i
z77a-gd65 16gb corsair dom platinum
msi gtx970 gaming 4gb
corsair ax760i
Been working great since 18/06/15 played all games great then she downloaded the division started to play then the pc shut down and there was a red light on psu.
So I took out psu tested it all unplugged got green light tested psu with thermaltake psu tester passed.
Put psu back in would not boot red light took out gpu pc booted up.
Upon inspecting gpu there are scorch marks on pcb near the pcie part of the pcb on a cap with R47 on it and another part just down from it with rs1 5MO on it.
does anyone know what these parts are for and what might of caused it.
I just hope I get it rma
