Sounds like a short in the board, I have 16 of these and I have only had 1 go bad. They are pretty fragile and need to be placed in a protective case and not messed with. Bending the ribbon cable or slipping it around while turned on, was how mine blew. The ones mounted into an LCD Surround have been great.

Might want too r.m.a that my only goes up to 45 c degrees friend. Msi will replace it or so will Amazon. That is a little warm there. Just side note use evga precision app it may help u out.

I have the same issue. It just stopped working. I had an electronic tech looked at it and he think it's something on the circuit board. We didn't see any burnt marks. This device runs hot constantly.Now, I bought a zojirushi as a replacement unit. It might cost more but it runs cool.

Check PS. New does not mean good, Check memory chips by inserting only one at a time (I have had bad memory out of the box cause the same issue). Remove MOBO and fire it on table top with minimum items connected.I built two computers with these cases.. no issues.

I don't have an answer as to reset chip... I just followed all the instructions and used what came in the pkg. It all worked perfectly and would use again.

1) did you make sure the heat sink was applied properly? what kind of temps are you getting @ bios when you reboot.2) power supply: how old? what kind of wattage?3) Have you tried doing any other intensive tasks like gaming or running a test app like SuperPi? Does it shut down then?

find a different mobo.theses have bad sata controllers.i warrentied mined 6 months after getting it and this one the sata ports only work if hdd is on one and dvd etc. on 4-6. too much of a hassel to warrenty out again.

It should be 'ok' to try. If you start getting random 'freezes' or the system just randomly 'reboots' on its own, that tells you the power supply is probably old and needs to be replaced.

I would contact ShopJimmy since they provide the chip and should know all the details. If it's not correct, they would be on the hook for replacement I would think.

Ok sorry I have had mine a while and works! I bought several items like this and used them through xmas! They all worked fine I would contact seller and ask for exchange or return? Sorry that's all I can do

My recommendation would be to buy another brand. I had a card RMA'd two times. It now sits in the shelf collecting dust.

I had a similar thing happen, but it was the power supply that was causing the problem. I'd call a best buy and take the power supply in and have them test it. They did it for free for me.

Make sure the MHz matches. If so it should be good to go. Otherwise call a local computer repair shop and ask

It has been a while since I used mine, if you have a load attached and it remains zero, I'd say it is broken, as in DOA. Sometimes stuff happens in transport.And by the way, when I got and used it back in December '13, I was quite pleased with the performance. Perfect for working with the sensitive, low power circuits I was testing.

I'm not quite sure how you would go about doing that but I would say check your CPU and GPU temperatures while under stress first and make sure nothing's overheating. As far as PSU failures go you should rule out everything else first. A defect in the PSU is always possible but unless it's really old I would say chances are very slim.

Try resetting the PRAM and see if that helps. Its possible One of your chips is faulty.

You need to take it to next level and complain to their supervisor or above since this is an expensive motherboard. Why are they sending you refurbish boards? It's no wonder why they all DOA
