    P8P67 Pro caught fire

    There's not a mark on the case, so I'm pretty sure it wasn't arcing to the case metal. I can't see how it's the case as there is no metal anywhere near where the motherboard caught on fire. I was having video out issues, similar to the original poster - not sure if that's significant?

    P8P67 Pro caught fire

    This just happened to me, area behind ram caught fire. Vendor wouldn't cover it under warranty, which is understandable, so it's ASUS RMA time.
