Hi,
Within the last couple of weeks i rebuilt my computer. I've used the computer for about two weeks without any issues, however last night while gaming, i heard a strange noise come from my comp and then smelled burned electronics. The computer froze, so i quickly shut it off. I took it apart and found that the only part that had any signs of singeing was my video card, it's a gigabyte gtx 750ti with zero overclocking done by myself, but i did purchase it off of kijiji. The singed area is between the top most choke and where the card's fan plugs in to draw power.
I assume i should send it away for repairs, its still under warranty. Any suggestions or help would be very appreciated.
