Before I go any further, here are my specs:

AMD A-Series 6800K Richland 4.1Ghz CPU

(2x) Ripjaws 8GB RAM

Nvidia GeForce GTX 650 Video Card

ASRock FM2A88X Killer Motherboard

500W PSU


Corsair Spec 01 Casing

I had an issue earlier and I even posted up a thread on this. But I experienced something that was weird, but recovered from. My computer froze with a very loud, distorted noise and I quickly unpluged my PSU. When I tried to re-boot, it wouldn't boot, nothing plugged on my mobo was turning on.

After opening up my PC, I realized my Heatsink and Video Card were very hot, so I installed a second fan. Again, when I boot it up, all fans turned on but nothing from the motherboard. Just a few a minutes ago I came back from working, I opened up my case, removed the video and plugged in my intergraded GPU, it finally booted. Turned it back off, plugged in my video card and now it's on and back to normal. That's the story.

** Has anyone ever experience these issues before? And since I have recovered from it, how can I prevent it from happening again? I'm afraid to even boot up a game.
