I just ran into an issue I haven't been able to solve. I was updating my BIOS through MSI's tool, when I noticed smoke and immediately pulled the plug on the system. I took the PSU out and let it cool off for a bit, and then tried to boot. I'm getting power to all my components but I'm getting nothing on my monitor.

I have no clue what could have happened. Any help? It smells like burning plastic, and the system is unplugged.
 


Well I had a fried VRM in the mobo, so I swapped it out and it's the same issue. Current setup:
CPU: FX 8350 @ 4.0GHz
Mobo: GA-78LMT-USB3 (970A SLI Krait Edition got fried)
PSU: RM750i
GPU: GTX 980 Ti
