When Video Cards Explode

When Video Cards Explode

By Ryan Van Etten on 06/20/2010

For the last few months I’d occasionally been hearing mini-explosion sounds like those bang snaps that I remember from my semi-pyromaniac youth. I finally figured out they were coming from my computer—a custom PC that I built in 2007. After another explosive pop yesterday, the graphics on my screen started to look like they were drunk. I opened up the PC case and my 2 SLI graphics cards were literally like a million degrees!
