So Lightning hit the house last night and smoked, my comp, dsl modem, wireless router, canon mfc, ps3 and directv receiver.
I built my rig, so I tore into it to see how bad it is, It think it crapped the bed totally. I tried booting up, nothing happened, no lights on the mobo, so I swapped out to my backup power supply tried to boot again, this time the integrated power/reset button started to blink aprox 1 blink per second, no fans, no nothing else. The mobo is a Asus P6T deluxe w/ I7-920 cpu and 12 gigs tri channel rip jaw series memory.
Sounds like to me the PS and mobo is shot. I dont really know how to test the cpu and memory other then to try them in a good mobo.
What do you guys think? Is the hole rig nothing more then a paper weight?
If so and its time for a new rig what do you guys recommend? I have missed the hole I3/I5 stuff, I like intel cpu's. I would go with top of the line stuff, like I did when I built this rig 3 years ago,
Any help would be great
Thanks
Ken
