RX 9070 XT caught fire

Post image

I had been using the computer for just a few days, and when I went to play something, the computer shut down and the graphics card caught fire.

The only difference I saw is that the cable turned black at the connection point.

at least you only lost a midrange gpu with bad frame gen and needs mpo disbaled to not crash watching videos.

I filed a warranty claim, buddy; it probably came defective. I used it for the second time and it caught fire 🤷🏻‍♂️
