Yesterday I installed my new RX 580 8Gb and when I turned the PC on, I got the normal post screen, but smoke began to came out of the case. Quickly turned everything off and opened it to see what was going on and turned out that the SATA cable of the PSU melted and took my SSD with it. Early this year the same thing happened and I lost my new HDD.
Is my PSU dying, or can be another issue?
My rig:
Windows 10 Pro x64
Core 2 Quad Q6600 @ 3.0GHz
8Gb RAM DDR2 800MHz
480Gb SSD (fried) and a 240gb SSD
RX 580 8Gb Asrock
Mobo ASUS P5KSE
PSU Seasonic S12II 620w
