I was thinking more of the explosion that blew the lid off the reactor. From a cold boot, the CPU was 50 degrees centigrade by the time the bios would show temperature, and it would tic up while only the bios was running.
Since it had at least one thermal shutdown, I have no idea the a state that the hardware is in. With my current situation with work, this is really the last thing I needed. At least I have my CDT to help me play some music and relax.
I'll keep that in mind. This is an x99 system, and I got the OEM tray, so no stock cooler for me. I have plans for my next upgrade/rebuild to do an EK-based custom loop, but that is 9 months out.
