The setup...
mobo: evga 750i ftw
cpu: x3380 @3.66ghz
mem: 2gb x 4 gskill ddr2 1100 @ ddr2 1066
video cards: 2 evga 285 gtx sc at stock sc speeds in a parallel water loop.
Two 7200 rpm WD hdds. One for each os.
powersupply: BFG 1kw psu

installed OSs: Windows 7 64 professional latest drivers fully updated
Ubuntu: latest distro fully updated with latest beta nvidia drivers
I was running a NAMD all atom simulation in Ubuntu. This loads my cpu completely and seems to heat the video cards up pretty good, but nothing over 50C. NAMD does not use very much memory so there was not much of a memory load.
I heard a *pop* and I smelled the death of electronics as my pc instantly shutoff.
I pulled the video cards to check it out, and it looks like some power regulator fried on the top (slot 1) 285.
The rest of the system and the other video card are working fine (thankfully.)
Attached are some pictures.
