Well then. · 12:26am Jan 20th, 2018

The mobo I ordered a fe days ago arrived...

Dead on arrival. Plugged it in following the manual instructions, made sure I used a PSU that wasn't going to fry the thing...

Magic smoke right when I fired it up. Complete with sizzling and popping noise. The VRM for the chipset AND the CPU fried on first boot, even when I was using a PSU that I knew for a fact worked well with hardware from the time period of the mobo.

I guess that's what I get for ordering off of Ebay for the first time in like 3 years...
