Hello! I accidentally stumbled upon an interesting X3D torture scenario. A single threaded game loading screen that pushes temperatures similar or higher than CR23 multi core test for me (which has until now been the hottest test for a 7800 X3D). What you need: the game Age of Empires 2 DE (I...

So yeah, sad but true story. I was gaming and about to take a break when suddenly boom, a puff of white smoke, an horrible smell and the PC shuts down (and proceeds to reboot but I didn't let it - I shut down the power at the plug). Following my nose I couldn't find anything wrong with the PSU...
