hi guys,
the matter is simple :D
i just burned my mobo (accidentally) by starting it over anti-static bag since i don't use a cabby i didn't notice it under my mobo :cry:
saw some smoke and all... lucky cpu, ram, and grfx card are safe..
but mobo is burned i think because its not posting
now my doubt is will i get my warranty on it? its less than a month old, i am now using my old mobo for working
will this burning void my warranty ?
 
Yes, i know my advice is bad, but usually the people could OC their card and if something's wrong they told the manufacture to RMA the card without telling anything about OC... AM i right?

so i should just tell them that it failed when i started my pc in the morning and it was working fine last night.. thats what you meant right?
btw wont they come to know that mobo was short circuited?

Short circuiting can be a flaw with the board itself so even if they find out they'll just figure that is what happened.
