oh well it looks like im going to start saving in abouts a year time i may have a bare bones to do 800px max renders

That really sucks. Do you know what component is actually broken? If it's not the motherboard or CPU then it may not cost too much to fix it.

[Jack]

both

[Oshyan]

Are you sure? Most modern CPUs have temperature safeties that will shut down the system *before* it fries if it gets too hot...

[Jack]

well it looks pretty black to me

[Oshyan]

You mean the motherboard is physically blackened? That does sound bad.

Please tell it was a joke?

That sucks. May I ask how old was it?  Motherboards typically have atleast 1 year warranty. Some more expensive motherboards have 2-3 years. CPUs tend to have 3 year warranty too.
