You photo shot your mobo while it is on fire? You're one tough lady. Other people would run around screaming "fire fire".
Ha. It was a lot more spectacular right at first. The flame went all the way through the fins on that heatsink and came out the top. Probably 7-8cm tall. It would flame up, stop, then flame up again in a cycle for a few seconds, and i managed to snag that photo toward the end just to prove it was actually a fire rather than a normal burnt component. There's actually a black spot on the motherboard tray underneath, which is kinda odd since the component on top.
My whole room still reeks of burnt electronics. Yesterday, someone said they were able to smell it on my clothes.
Also, the dog needed toys, so i went and grabbed a bunch of random balls out of the bayou. I ended up with an entire bacpack full of good ones from maybe 8 hours of kayaking. I guess that's the one upside of all the litter here. If it floats, you'll eventually find it in one of the bayous. If it doesn't float, you may still find it there. There was an entire crushed up porta potty just sitting there today. The group thatcleans the bayous in this city had to deal with another one fairly recently. Here's a video from their most recent trip in which they cleaned up one litter raft, to give an idea of how bad it really is.

Video description says 192.5 balls. Sounds about right. Those things are everywhere, since they easily wash down storm drains.
