Hey guys, I need some help here.
I plugged in my brand new CX500 power supply into my mobo booted up, and to my horror one of those microchip thingies starts smoking (see top right next to the fan3 header). Ofc I turn it off.
I check my connections for anything that could be causing problems, but it all seems fine. When I turn it back on, the mobo seems to post fine, but there is still the problem of the hole in one of those microchip thingies.
Pics below:
Any info about what happened or what I should do will be very appreciated.
