I was so excited to hear ATI was finally shipping my X800 XL preorder. I tracked it all the way to my door, immediately opened it, replaced my X300 card which has been holding me over until now. I boot up and see... nothing! After a minute of being dumbfounded as to why a video card would produce no video, I started smelling a weird burning smell. At first, I thought it was my OCZ ps finally having a burn in smell with the load of a real video card, but then the smell started getting stronger. I immediately turned off the computer and took out the x800. Sure enough, on the back, a capacitor had blown melting some stuff around it and creating a big black spot on the card. I am so pissed off. I was looking forward to finally playing HL2 this weekend! ATI better be good about handling this or I will never go to them again after this entire fiasco. Just hope this isnt a problem with the first batch of cards. You would think ATI would test them. Now I have to put up with this X300 for a little longer.
