Hello,

Recently I have purchased a ASRock FM2A88X Killer series motherboard, and only a day later (today) I was on Counter Strike Global Offensive, and my entire machine froze and gave off a very loud distorted noise. I quickly unplugged the back and opened up my case. My heatsink and video card were both hot and Corsair Spec 01 case was slowly flashing red, so to me, that was a red flag. I was only packing one fan from the case, with intentions of putting a second one (which I just installed.) I try booting up and my mouse and keyboard don't turn on and I have no display.

Is my motherboard fried or my CPU? I havent checked inside my cpu yet.
